Abstract

A 77-year-old female Caucasian patient with known Takayasu’s arteritis diagnosed at 20 years of age was admitted to the emergency department due to diffuse sudden-onset abdominal pain. On physical examination, femoral pulses were feeble. Laboratory results were unremarkable. Abdominal CT angiography showed a long abdominal predominantly infra-renal aortic stenosis (Figures 1 and 2).
