摘要：

We report the case of a 71-year-old woman diagnosed with giant cell arteritis with bilateral subclavian and axillary obstruction and severe arm claudication that occurred 3 months earlier and was non-regressed after corticosteroids. Before possible revascularization, the patient was initiated to a personalized home-based graded exercise program including walking, hand-bike pedaling, and muscle strength training. During the 9 months of treatment, the patient progressively improved radial pressure values (10 to 85 mmHg), hand temperature values by infrared-thermography ( thorn 2.1 & DEG;C), arm endurance, and forearm muscle oxygenation by near-infrared spectroscopy. Home-based graded exercise proved to be a noninvasive option for upper limb claudication. (J Vasc Surg Cases Innov Tech 2023;9:101179.)
