Abstract
Giant cell arteritis (GCA) presents clinically as an enlarged, tender, non-pulsatile temporal artery with associated headache and systemic symptoms. We present an unusual case of a patient with an enlarged temporal artery in the absence of other clinical findings. An atypical biopsy result provided the diagnosis and guided treatment.
