Abstract/OtherAbstract:
We describe a 59-year-old Japanese man with rare complications of giant cell arteritis. He presented with aortic insufficiency due to dilatation of the aortic root. Nine years after the occurrence of aortic insufficiency, he suffered from a cerebral infarction due to occlusion of the left middle and anterior cerebral arteries, showing giant cell arteritis.
