Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is an immune-mediated large-vessel vasculitis with a complex etiology in which a cross talk between environmental and genetic factors may affect its susceptibility and phenotypic expression. During the last decades, a large number of candidate gene studies explored the genetic component of GCA.

Seminars in Ophthalmology, 2008
This review summarizes the diagnosis, clinical manifestations and management of giant cell arteritis. Giant cell arteritis is an immune-mediated vasculitis of medium to large sized arteries that affects individuals older than the age of 50. Patients typically present with signs of vascular insufficiency of the extracranial arteries of the head and ...

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2004
Patients with a suspected diagnosis of giant cell arteritis (GCA) should be started on high-dose corticosteroid therapy without delay. A temporal artery biopsy should be performed after initiation of therapy to confirm the diagnosis. Patients with acute visual or neurologic symptoms present a neuro-ophthalmic emergency.

Giant cell epulis (peripheral giant cell granuloma) typically appears as a reactive benign lesion in the oral cavity in areas following local irritation or chronic trauma. Here we describe the case of a 45-year-old male patient who presented with the chief complaint of a large gingival mass in the anterolateral maxilla.

Giant cell arteritis is a medium-vessel vasculitis that affects both men and women. Because the disease commonly presents with nonspecific complaints stemming from cranial arterial insufficiency, the challenge for the physician is recognizing the diagnosis.

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2007
Giant cell arteritis is an important cause of blindness in patients over 60 years of age. We attempt to identify the important clinical aspects in the diagnosis and management of this disorder, so that treatment may be instituted expeditiously to limit visual loss.In addition, we identify current areas of standards in the investigation and treatment of

Archives of Family Medicine, 1994
Giant cell arteritis is a form of vasculitis affecting medium- and large-size arteries, with a predilection for vessels arising from the aortic arch. The origins of giant cell arteritis are unknown. However, ethnic affinities are prominent, with the majority of cases involving white, elderly patients.

THE DISTRIBUTION OF GIANT CELLS IN GIANT CELL MYOCARDITIS
Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2020Giant-cell myocarditis (GCM) is a rare condition with a poor prognosis. Its pathogenesis and pathology are unclear. Of the 699 patients who had undergone heart transplantation, 8 patients were diagnosed with GCM on pathology. H-E, Masson and multiplex immunohistochemistry staining were performed.
