A granulomatous giant cell vasculitis of the temporal artery was observed in a biopsy specimen from a patient with corresponding clinical symptoms. Within weeks, the new onset of pulmonary infiltrates and renal failure prompted biopsy of the patient's kidney. A necrotizing glomerulonephritis, compatible with a diagnosis of Wegener's granulomatosis, was present. Vasculitis of the temporal artery may be a feature of Wegener's granulomatosis.
在一名有相应临床症状患者的活检标本中观察到颞动脉的肉芽肿性巨细胞血管炎。数周内，肺部浸润和肾衰竭的新发情况促使对该患者的肾脏进行活检。存在与韦格纳肉芽肿病诊断相符的坏死性肾小球肾炎。颞动脉血管炎可能是韦格纳肉芽肿病的一个特征。
