Abstract

We saw a 23-year-old women with orthostasis, visual disturbances and pale discoloration of fingers on the left hand. Arterial pulsations were absent on both carotid, radial and ulnar arteries. Inflammatory parameters were raised and on funduscopy there was retinal ischemia. On FDG-PET/CT the diagnosis of Takayasu arteritis was made.
