Kidney autotransplantation with renal arteries injury in a patient with Takayasu arteritis

Takayasu arteritis (AT) is a systemic vasculitis of large vessels. As a rule, AT develops in patients under 50 years of age and is characterized by vasculitis, often granulomatous, with a predominant lesion of the aorta and/or its main branches. The article describes a clinical case of a patient with bilateral lesions of the renal arteries caused by AT, who underwent kidney autotransplantation. The first manifestations of psoriasis in the patient occurred after psychological stress 15 years after surgery. The described clinical observation of multi-stage surgical treatment of Takayasu arteritis, which ended favorably, is presented by us in order to demonstrate the capabilities of modern medical technologies in both diagnosis and surgical treatment of multi-vessel lesions in Takayasu arteritis. The combination of AT and psoriasis is a rare pathology, the problems of diagnosis and treatment of which require further study.
