A case of generalized granuloma annulare associated with temporal arteritis is described. The patient, a 79-year-old man, noticed numerous asymptomatic lesions on his trunk and extremities for 3 months. Four months later, he suffered from headache and loss of vision. Both were successfully treated by oral administration of prednisolone.
