The coexistence of giant cell arteritis (GCA) and autoimmune thyroid diseases has been suggested. In our prospective study of 39 patients with GCA, we measured autoantibodies and thyroid function and compared the results to those of a control group. No statistical difference was found. Our conclusions differ from those of other authors.
