  • Title: [Takayasu's disease localized exclusively in the pulmonary artery].
    Author: Sandron D, Clarke JP, Guillevin L, Bouillard J, Pioche D.
    Journal: Rev Pneumol Clin; 1989; 45(5):217-20. PubMed ID: 2576329.
    Abstract:
    A 35 year-old woman exhibited a stenotic lesion of the right pulmonary artery with a severe inflammatory syndrome. A diagnosis of Takayasu arteritis was made, although no aortographic abnormality was present. Involvement of pulmonary arteries during the course of Takayasu arteritis is frequent, but a localisation of the disease to the pulmonary arterial tree alone is a very rare condition.
