Abstract:
Takayasu's arteritis is a rare non-specific obliterative panarteritis of unknown origin that occurs predominantly in young Asian and Oriental females of childbearing age and has been encountered in the UK. With the exception of a few large series from the Far East, much of the information on Takayasu's arteritis in pregnancy comes from isolated case reports with no long term follow-up after pregnancy. We report a patient with this condition who had three pregnancies during a 4-year follow-up period with no serious complications.
