Stenting for Takayasu arteritis can lead to severe complications like hemorrhage and infarction, even death. Careful patient selection and risk management are crucial for endovascular treatment success.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Medicine
  • Interventional Cardiology
  • Vascular Surgery

Background:

  • Takayasu arteritis is a rare, chronic inflammatory disease affecting large arteries, primarily the aorta and its branches.
  • Endovascular stenting is an option for managing severe stenosis or occlusions in Takayasu arteritis.
  • Peri- and postprocedural complications can significantly impact patient outcomes.

Observation:

  • A 69-year-old woman with Takayasu arteritis underwent stent implantation in the aortic arch and thoracic aorta.
  • The patient experienced reperfusion injury with cerebral hemorrhage post-procedure, precluding anticoagulation/antiplatelet therapy.
  • Subsequent cerebral infarctions and hemorrhages led to the patient's death.

Findings:

  • Endovascular stenting in complex vascular disease, such as Takayasu arteritis, carries substantial risks.

  • Complications include reperfusion injury, cerebral hemorrhage, and infarction, contributing to high morbidity and mortality.
  • The underlying severe vascular disease itself confers a poor prognosis.

    • Implications:

    • This case highlights the critical need for careful risk-benefit assessment before stenting in Takayasu arteritis patients.
    • Strategies to mitigate peri- and postprocedural complications require further investigation.
    • Improved patient selection and tailored management approaches are essential for optimizing outcomes in complex aortic diseases.
