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.

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

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 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.
