Abstract

Takayasu arteritis is characterized by blood vessel inflammation involving the aorta and its branches. We describe a patient with Takayasu arteritis with severe multivessel involvement and classic physical examination findings but virtually no symptoms because of the presence of extensive collateral circulation seen on computed tomography angiography and magnetic resonance angiography imaging.<br />Competing Interests: The authors have reported that they have no relationships relevant to the contents of this paper to disclose.<br /> (© 2024 The Authors.)
