Description
Naylya Djumaeva and co-authors present a case report, published in 2026, following one patient with a rare artery disease for more than forty years. Takayasu arteritis inflames large arteries, and onset in childhood is uncommon, with almost no published follow up this long. The patient's illness began at age nine and was confirmed at sixteen as a widespread type of the disease.
Over the decades she had stenting and prosthetic rebuilding of the abdominal aorta, a bypass near the neck arteries, and removal of one kidney, alongside careful low dose drug treatment. Her course slowly steadied, with longer calm stretches and independence preserved. Recent scans show extensive old damage but strong detour vessels and a working remaining kidney.
