Abstract:
Clinically isolated aortitis can arise from infectious or inflammatory etiologies. Glucocorticoids are the first-line therapy for inflammatory causes of aortitis such as large-vessel vasculitis. However, prolonged steroids use is associated with numerous side effects. We present a case of a 60-year-old woman with clinically isolated aortitis who received early treatment with tocilizumab to avoid prolonged steroid use.
