Temporal arteritis, also known as giant cell arteritis, is an inflammatory disease of the large arteries, primarily affecting the temporal and medium to large arteries. It is classified as a form of arteritis that is often associated with other systemic diseases such as polymyalgia rheumatica. Temporal arteritis primarily affects older adults, especially women, and can present with severe neurological complications, including vision loss, due to involvement of the arteries that supply the eye. Symptoms often include headaches, tenderness to palpation of the temporal region, fatigue, fever, and weight loss. Early diagnosis and treatment are important, as advanced forms can lead to serious complications.<\/p>\n
