Arteritis Takayasu (AT) belongs to the group of systemic vasculitis with a predominant lesion of vessels of large diameter. This disease is characterized by granulomatous inflammation of the aorta and its main branches. Complications of AT can be myocardial infarction, strokes, heart failure, which develop in young people with intact vessels. AT is a difficult for diagnosis and treatment disease. And, since its progression can lead to a fatal outcome, timely diagnosis and adequate therapy improves prognosis. Therefore, the presented clinical case may be of interest to clinicians.
