Unusual variants in the presentation of temporal arteritis.

A retrospective study was made of 96 patients diagnosed as cranial arteritis of whom 32 were accepted using strict clinical criteria or a positive temporal artery biopsy.

The recognition of these variations is important in the early diagnosis of temporal arteritis.
