Description |
Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is a primary vasculitis of medium and large vessels with a broad range of clinical presentations. Myocarditis is a rare known manifestation of GCA. We present a case of a 67 year old man who presented with acute systolic heart failure of unknown etiology. Development of arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy lead to the diagnosis of myocarditis secondary to GCA. |
