Disruption of the tunica media is not a specific feature of GCA; however, it is often observed in TABs. Consensus work with expert pathologists have recommended that the presence or absence of disruption of the tunica media should be reported on TAB reports for the diagnosis of GCA.
This project is funded by Leeds Hospital Charity and The Pathological Society of Great Britain and Ireland. All whole slide images are hosted on the Leeds Virtual Pathology website and we are grateful for their collaboration.
