Ocular symptoms can be the presenting manifestation of Takayasu arteritis (TA) or could be indicative of disease reactivation. A review of published literature related to posterior segment manifestations of TA by using the keywords “Takayasu arteritis,” “ophthalmic manifestations,” “retina,” “retinopathy,” “ocular,” “optic nerve,” and “optic neuropathy” was performed. In total, 62 case reports and 12 case series were included. The majority of the articles were from Asia (n = 47, 64%). Females outnumbered males in the ratio of 7:1. The mean age of patients was 33 years (range: 8–78 years, SD: 13.5 years). In 58% (n = 41 out of 71) cases, ocular symptoms were the presenting manifestation of the underlying disease. Hypotensive retinopathy was found in 70% of eyes, and hypertensive retinopathy was found in 27%. The mean presenting visual acuity (VA) was +1.03 logMAR (range: −0.12 to 3, SD: 1.07), and at the final follow-up was +1.02 logMAR (range: −0.12 to 3, SD 1.17). VA improved in 34% (n = 29/86), remained stable in 45% (39/86), and worsened in 21% (18/86). The mean follow-up was 9 months (range: 0.5–204, SD: 16 months).

“…The subsequent ophthalmic sequelae of left ocular ischaemia and neovascular complications in the left eye is in line with the more frequently reported late ophthalmic presentation of ocular ischaemia. 6,8 According to the American College of Rheumatology, the presence of at least three of six characteristics is diagnostic of TA. 1 In this case, the patient fulfilled four characteristics: age ≤40 years; systolic blood pressure difference greater than 10 mmHg between two arms; audible bruit over subclavian arteries and abdominal aorta; and arteriographic narrowing of primary branches of the aorta.…”

Lessons of the month 2: Retinal vasculitis: a first presentation of Takayasu's arteritis

et al. 2021

Takayasu's arteritis is a chronic, systemic, large-vessel vasculitis affecting the aorta and its primary branches. However, coronary, renal and pulmonary arteries and small vessel involvement has been documented. We describe a rare case of Takayasu's arteritis with extensive supra-aortic arch disease, manifesting with bilateral occlusive retinal vasculitis as a first presentation. This is elicited by fundus findings of vascular sheathing and fundus fluoresceine angiography evidence of retinal vessel occlusion and peripheral capillary non-perfusion.

“…The ocular findings of the disease are related with carotid artery obliteration which leads to hypoperfusion of all the eye structures. Reduced blood flow in the carotid arteries causes Takayasu's retinopathy which is related to the chronic ischemia and occurs in the late phase of the disease [5]. …”

Takayasu's arteritis (TA) is a chronic inflammatory granulomatous vasculitis which affects large and medium arterial vessels. The disease involves especially subclavian arteries and aortic branches but it can consist of any arteries. The major pathology is granulomatous panarteritis with intima proliferation and defects of the elastic lamina of the vessels. We present a case of central retinal artery occlusion in TA as the first presentation of the disease. To the best of our knowledge, the present case is the first case that demonstrates central retinal artery occlusion as an initial manifestation in TA. A 48-year-old woman was admitted to our clinic with the complaint of sudden and painless vision loss in her right eye for one day. Although retinal artery involvement is a very rare presentation in TA, it is important to recall TA particularly in young patients with retinal artery occlusion.
