Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is a systemic vasculitis of medium and large arteries often with ophthalmic involvement, including ischemic optic neuropathy, retinal artery occlusion, and ocular motor cranial nerve palsies. This last complication occurs in 2%-15% of patients, but typically involves only 1 cranial nerve. We present 2 patients with biopsy-proven GCA associated with multiple cranial nerve palsies.
巨细胞动脉炎(GCA)是一种累及中、大动脉的系统性血管炎,常累及眼部,包括缺血性视神经病变、视网膜动脉阻塞和动眼神经麻痹。最后一种并发症发生在2% - 15%的患者中,但通常仅累及1条颅神经。我们报告2例经活检证实的GCA合并多条颅神经麻痹的患者。
