Abstract

We report the case of a male with Aorto arteritis (Takayasu’s) with extensive calcification of aorta and its branches. Extensive calcification of the arteries is unusual in Takayasu’s  arteritis. A variety of mechanisms may play a role in this phenomenon of calcification, and we attempt to elucidate some of them.

KEYWORDS: Vasculitis; Aortoarteritis; Vascular calcification; Takayasu.
