Takayasu's arteritis diagnosed in a patient with long-standing arthralgias and arthritis.

J J Sketchler, J Waxman.   

Abstract

A 50-year-old woman had seronegative polyarthritis for three years, followed by vascular obstruction with classic Takayasu's arteritis. She responded symptomatically to high-dose steroid therapy and remains in long-term remission (joints and vasculature) after taper of medication. Literature review documents this relationship of arthritis to vasculitis in this and other types of vascular inflammation.
