Takayasu Arteritis Complicated by Ischemic Colitis: A Case Report

Takayasu arteritis is an inflammatory disease of the aorta and its major branches, which results in stenosis and aneurysm formation. Lesions of the abdominal aorta and renal arteries are common. Nevertheless, lesions of the celiac and superior mesenteric arteries are less common. Since the inferior...

description Takayasu arteritis is an inflammatory disease of the aorta and its major branches, which results in stenosis and aneurysm formation. Lesions of the abdominal aorta and renal arteries are common. Nevertheless, lesions of the celiac and superior mesenteric arteries are less common. Since the inferior mesenteric artery is usually preserved and functions as a collateral pathway, developing intestinal ischemia is very rare in patients with Takayasu arteritis. In this study, we report the case of a patient with Takayasu arteritis complicated by ischemic colitis. The patient was treated with surgical repair, which resolved the patient’s symptoms.
