Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Takayasu's arteritis (TA) is a systemic vasculitis that affects mainly the aorta and its major branches. Despite being the third most frequent vasculitis in childhood, the occurrence of TA in the pediatric age group is scarce. We report three cases of TA in children, emphasizing signs and symptoms, angiographic alterations and therapeutics. |
