Abstract

The clinical course of Takayasu arteritis varies from nonspecific constitutional symptoms such as fever, malaise, rashes, loss of appetite, dizziness, and so on during the acute phase to those resulting from arterial stenosis and ischemia in chronic phase. We report a case of a young female presenting with resistant hypertension and lower limb claudication. The diagnosis was confirmed by multiple detector computed tomography-renal angiogram, which showed narrowing of abdominal aorta just above celiac trunk along with wall thickening. The lady was treated with balloon aortoplasty following which the claudication symptoms were subsided and blood pressure was normalized.
球囊主动脉成形术治疗高松动脉炎的高血压:病例报告与回顾
高须动脉炎的临床病程从急性期的发热、不适、皮疹、食欲不振、头晕等非特异性体质症状到慢性期的动脉狭窄和缺血引起的症状不等。我们报告一例年轻女性表现为顽固性高血压和下肢跛行。经多层计算机断层扫描-肾血管造影证实,显示腹腔干上方腹主动脉狭窄伴壁增厚。患者接受气囊主动脉成形术治疗,跛行症状消退,血压恢复正常。
