| Description |
Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is characterized by granulomatous inflammation of the large and medium arteries of the head and neck. Histologically, GCA is grouped into three categories: positive for active GCA, negative for active GCA and healing/healed (HH) arterial injury. The factors that contribute to the decision making while initiating corticosteroid in HH arteritis is not well established. We performed a retrospective chart review of patients with HH arteritis and assessed the clinical characteristics associated with indications for treatment. |
