Abstract
Takayasu arteritis represents a rare, granulomatous inflammation of main arterial branches. Due to its low prevalence and polymorphic clinical aspects, often times it’s difficult to make a diagnosis, requiring many investigations to be performed, with their associated costs. We present the case of a young-woman having the classic aspects reported in literature, however establishing the final diagnosis was tricky and it implied a range of multidisciplinary specialists.
