HLA tissue-type antigen determination for A-, B- and C-antigens in 88 patients suffering from giant cell arteritis of the temporal artery showed no significant deviations as compared to a control material of 3164 blood donors. A weak indication of association with antigen HLA-B8 appeared to be of interest due to a corresponding indication in previous investigation. The patients were a mixed hospital material, consisting of cases of clinical temporal arteritis and patients with polymyalgia rheumatica. There was an overrepresentation of women (77%). Familial occurrence was demonstrated sporadically (3 pairs of siblings).
对88例颞动脉巨细胞动脉炎患者的A、B和C抗原进行HLA组织类型抗原测定，结果显示与3164名献血者的对照材料相比，无明显偏差。由于先前研究中有相应提示，与抗原HLA - B8的关联有微弱迹象，这似乎值得关注。这些患者是混合的医院病例材料，包括临床颞动脉炎病例和风湿性多肌痛患者。女性占比过高（77%）。家族性发病偶有出现（3对兄弟姐妹）。
