Abstract

A 76-yr-old woman with widespread giant cell arteritis and polymyalgia rheumatica is described. The patient had an unusual simultaneous involvement of the cranial (temporal) arteries demonstrated by biopsy, and of large elastic arteries (aorta and its major branches), medium-sized and small muscular arteries, arterioles and vasa vasorum found at autopsy. Coronary arteritis was responsible for the fatal myocardial infarction.
