From January 2010 to June 2022, 20 patients who underwent open aortic repair after TEVAR were included.

After an episode of hypertensive crisis caused by high grade stenosis of the renal arteries and review of previous tissue biopsies the diagnosis of Takayasu's arteritis was established, but the results were inconclusive.
