Infarction of the small bowel caused by giant cell arteritis. Case report.

K G Ljungström1, O Strandberg, B Sandstedt.   

Abstract

A case with giant cell arteritis causing infarction of two segments of the small bowel is described in a 43-year-old woman. Subsequent angiography showed stenoses in both subclavian arteries and one common iliac artery, compatible with Takayasu's disease. The difficulties in distinguishing the different types of granulomatous giant cell arteries are discussed.
