    Author: Graham AN, Delahunt B, Renouf JJ, Austad WI.
    Journal: Aust N Z J Med; 1985 Jun; 15(3):343-5. PubMed ID: 2865947.
    Abstract:
    A case of Takayasu's disease in a young Caucasian female is described. The major complications which developed over the ten year course of the disease include nephrotic syndrome, severe refractory hypertension, aortic valve regurgitation associated with aneurysmal dilatation of the ascending aorta, and recurrent congestive heart failure. Amyloid deposits have been demonstrated in the aorta, atrial appendage, aortic valve, and renal cortex. The association of amyloidosis and Takayasu's disease is discussed.
