Régression de sténoses intracrâniennes vertébrobasilaires symptomatiques sous corticothérapie au cours d'une maladie de Horton

Corticosteroid therapy improves intracranial stenoses caused by vasculitis but should be initially associated with an intensive antithrombotic therapy to avoid early recurrence of cerebral infarcts.
