Synonymssuch as aortic arch syndrome, pulseless disease and aortitis syndrome reflect this anatomic localization. TAappears to be most commonin East Asia inc...
متن کاملPolymyalgia Rheumatica (PMR) — Comparison to Temporal Arteritis (Giant Cell Arteritis)
Giant cell arteritis (a.k.a., Horton’s temporal arteritis) belongs to the vasculitis group of diseases and affects the great vessels, especially branches of the carotid arteries in the head. Polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) was formerly regarded as an independent disease. Nowadays, due to shared accumulations, it is also commonly assumed that these two diseases are caused by identical pathogeneses,...

متن کاملElectron microscopy of giant-cell (temporal) arteritis.
Definitive histological studies of giant-cell (temporal) arteritis have been published by several workers (Harrison, 1948; Heptinstall, Porter, and Barkley, 1954; McCormick and Neuberger, 1958). The lesions are fairly uniform and have involved all layers of many different arteries and veins-large and small, intracranial as well as extracranial. The distinctive histological finding in this disea...
