Abstract
Takayasu's arteritis is an arteritis of undetermined etiology, which affects the aorta, proximal portion of its major branches, and causes narrowing, occlusion, or aneurysmal dilatation of vessel. Authors report 2 cases of Takayasa's arteritis with brief review of the literature.
Takayasu 동맥염은, 원인은 분명하지 않으나, 아마도 자가면역질환으로서, 초기 전신기와 후기 폐쇄기에 걸쳐 여려 다양한 증세를 초래할 수 있고, 진단은 대동맥 조영술에 의한 대동맥 및 분지의 협착을 관찰하는 것이 필수적이다.
