We report two elderly patients with normal erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and biopsy-confirmed giant cell arteritis. Because of the potentially disastrous consequences of undiagnosed giant cell arteritis, early treatment based on clinical diagnostic criteria is urged despite a normal ESR.
我们报告了两名红细胞沉降率（ESR）正常且经活检确诊为巨细胞动脉炎的老年患者。鉴于未诊断出的巨细胞动脉炎可能带来灾难性后果，尽管ESR正常，仍强烈建议根据临床诊断标准进行早期治疗。
