Temporal arteritis, a form of vasculitis, can cause inflammation in the dura mater and temporalis muscles. This case report highlights the association observed via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and biopsy.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Vascular Medicine
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Giant cell arteritis (GCA) typically affects large and medium arteries.
  • Cranial involvement in GCA can manifest in various ways, including neurological symptoms.

Observation:

  • A 69-year-old male presented with headache, diplopia, and temporal artery tenderness.
  • Elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) suggested an inflammatory process.

Findings:

  • Brain MRI revealed multifocal dural and temporalis muscle enhancement.
  • Temporal artery biopsy confirmed necrotizing vasculitis.
  • Dural biopsy showed perivascular inflammatory infiltrates.

Implications:

  • This case suggests a potential link between temporal arteritis and dural/temporalis muscle enhancement on MRI.
