Description Temporal artery biopsy (TAB) confirms the diagnosis of giant cell arteritis (GCA). However, the histopatholgic diagnosis of healed/healing arterial injury is not well understood. The purpose of this study was to further elucidate the clinical significance of this finding on TAB, by determining its association with seromarkers typically predictive of GCA.
