Abstract

Two cases of brain stem infarction as an early and fatal complication of giant-cell arteritis are reported. These complications occurred despite adequate treatment with corticosteroids. The findings at autopsy are compared with those of the literature. The possible pathogenetic mechanisms of vertebro basilar occlusion and the therapeutical implications are discussed.
