Update on Takayasu's arteritis
La Presse Médicale, 2015Takayasu arteritis (TAK) is a rare, chronic large-vessel vasculitis (LVV) that predominantly affects aorta, its major branches and the pulmonary arteries. Recent advances in the genetics, clinical course, prognosis, disease assessment with biomakers/imaging/new scoring systems and new treatment options in TAK are discussed in this review.

Bilateral Takayasu’s retinopathy as the initial presentation of Takayasu’s arteritis
BMJ Case ReportsWe present a case of Takayasu’s arteritis in a woman in her 30s, who exhibited visual symptoms and ophthalmic manifestations of the disease, specifically Takayasu’s retinopathy stage 4, in both eyes. Despite severe narrowing of all branches of the aortic arch and compromised perfusion in both upper limbs, she had no history of intermittent claudication.

AbstractTakayasu’s disease is a rare chronic vasculitis of unknown aetiology. Initial symptoms and signs are non-specific, and a high index of suspicion is needed to make the correct diagnosis. The disease is associated with a high incidence of morbidity, and a significant risk of premature death.

Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, 1994
Takayasu's arteritis has become increasingly recognized as a worldwide entity with a variable spectrum of disease expression. Although evidence for immune mechanisms of disease exist, the precise etiopathogenesis remains elusive. Improvements in the evaluation of disease activity beyond the current parameters of clinical symptoms, erythrocyte ...

Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 2017
Purpose of review Takayasu arteritis has long been considered as an uncommon disease, rather specific to the Far-East; however recent surveys show that the disease can be seen in all ethnicities around the world with increasing prevalence rates. Nowadays, it would not be fair to consider Takayasu arteritis as a rare disease.

Takayasu and Temporal Arteritis
2006Takayasu and temporal arteritis are primary large-vessel vasculitides. Ultrasound directly depicts the inflamed vessel wall, which is homogenously and circumferentially thickened. Furthermore, stenoses and occlusions occur. Ultrasound almost completely depicts the whole length of the common superficial temporal arteries, including the frontal and ...
