[External carotid arteriography in Horton's disease. A report on 11 observations (author's transl)].

Highly selective angiography was used to study eleven cases of Horton's arteritis. The results showed the presence of segmental vascular abnormalities which, though mainly affecting the temporal artery region, were also present in that of the internal maxillary artery. This examination procedure can be of great value by assisting the surgeon in his choice of biopsy sample, which is essential for diagnostic purposes.
