Giant Cell Arteritis

Neurologic Clinics, 2019
"Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is a chronic, idiopathic, granulomatous vasculitis of medium and large arteries comprising overlapping phenotypes of cranial arteritis and extracranial GCA. Vascular complications are generally due to delay in diagnosis and initiation of effective treatment.

Vision loss in giant cell arteritis

Practical Neurology, 2021
Almost two-thirds of patients with giant cell arteritis (GCA) develop ocular symptoms and up to 30% suffer permanent visual loss. We review the three most common mechanisms for visual loss in GCA, describing the relevant ophthalmic arterial anatomy and ...

GIANT CELL ARTERITIS

Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, 1995
Whereas giant cell arteritis (GCA) was considered a rare disease 50 years ago, the generalized arteritis is now recognized as an important and significant cause of morbidity in elderly people; its cause and pathogenesis is poorly understood. Glucocorticosteroids are the drug of choice in all clinical types of GCA.

The Journal of Emergency Medicine, 1986
Giant-cell or temporal arteritis is a generalized vasculitis that predominantly affects large- and medium-sized arteries in people over 50 years of age. The illness is commonly characterized by the initial symptoms of headache, temporal artery tenderness or pulselessness, musculoskeletal pain, fever, and fatigue.

Cranial and large vessel activity on positron emission tomography scan at diagnosis and 6 months in giant cell arteritis

International Journal of Rheumatic Diseases, 2020
Positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) can detect cranial and large vessel inflammation in giant cell arteritis (GCA). We aimed to determine the change and significance of vascular activity at diagnosis and 6 months.

Diagnostic Accuracy of Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography of the Head, Neck, and Chest for Giant Cell Arteritis: A Prospective, Double‐Blind, Cross‐Sectional Study

Arthritis & Rheumatology, 2019
Positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) has not been well studied as a first‐line test for giant cell arteritis (GCA), due, in part, to historical limitations in visualizing the cranial arteries.
