Abstract EN
We report the case of a 24-year-old nondiabetic, nonhypertensive lady with history of fatigue, dyspnoea and limb claudication.
She has been diagnosed with Takayasu’s arteritis.
Subsequently she developed rash, alopecia, joint pain, and various other laboratory abnormalities which led to a diagnosis of SLE.
Takayasu’s arteritis (TA) rarely coexists with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
The absence of specific SLE markers in patients with TA who subsequently develop SLE suggests that the coexistence of these conditions may be coincidental.
The antiphospholipid syndrome in patients with SLE may mimic the occlusive vasculitis of TA.
