Giant cell arteritis (GCA) of the uterus and adnexa is extremely rare--only nine cases have been reported. We report a further case, in which the patient was found to have GCA of the myometrial arteries on routine hysterectomy. She then developed another rare manifestation of GCA, involvement of the axillary arteries causing arm claudication and chronically ischaemic hands.

子宫和附件的巨细胞动脉炎极为罕见——仅报告过9例。我们报告了另外1例，该患者在常规子宫切除术中被发现子宫肌层动脉存在巨细胞动脉炎。随后，她出现了巨细胞动脉炎的另一种罕见表现，即腋动脉受累，导致手臂间歇性跛行和手部长期缺血。
