This case illustrates sequential intracranial occlusions in large‐vessel vasculitis compatible with Takayasu arteritis preserving perfusion through robust collateral pathways. Transcranial color‐coded duplex sonography identified characteristic blunted flow patterns and focal turbulence, underscoring its value in detecting hemodynamic compromise beyond

ABSTRACT Takayasu arteritis (TAK) is a large‐vessel vasculitis that can lead to aneurysmal dilation, yet reliable circulating biomarkers for vascular remodelling remain lacking. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) carry miRNAs implicated in vascular biology, but their relevance to TAK has not been fully explored. Circulating EVs were isolated from serum of 54
