Abstract

Takayasu's arteritis is a chronic inflammatory disease that primarily affects large vessels, such as the aorta and its main branches. Pulmonary artery is often involved in Takayasu's arteritis, but only a few cases have been reported in which pulmonary artery involvement occurred as the initial clinical manifestation. We report one patient who was referred to our institution with the provisional diagnosis of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension and subsequently diagnosed with Takayasu's arteritis involving the pulmonary artery.

저자들은 타카야수동맥염에 전형적인 맥박 감소, 사지 혈압의 차이, 사지 파행 등의 증상 없이 기침, 흉통, 객혈과 체중 감소의 호흡기 증상과 전신증상을 주소로 내원한 17세 남자 환자에서 진찰소견과 폐혈관조영술을 통해 폐동맥염을 확인하고, 대동맥조영술을 통해 쇄골하동맥과 온목동맥의 협착을 관찰하여 타카야수동맥염으로 진단한 증례를 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.
