Abstract

Takayasu´s arteritis is a rare inflammatory disease of large- and medium-sized arteries which predominantly affects women of middle-aged. We report an unusual case of Takayasu arteritis in a 54-year-old woman presenting with progressive lower limbs intermittent claudication. Aneurysmal and stenotic vascular lesions involving both common iliac arteries were identified which also represents a very uncommon anatomical distribution in this pathology. In addition, we share our experience with endovascular intervention for stenotic lesions.
