Abstract:
A rare case of Takasu's arteritis associated with subarachnoid hemorrhage and intracranial aneurysm is described. It is well known that diseases such as intracranial venous malformations, carotid artery stenosis, moyamoya syndrome, brain neoplasm, coarcatation of aorta, polycystic kidney disease, connective tissue diseases, etc are often associated with aneurysms, however an association with Takayasu's arteritis has not been reported. We discussed clinical features, radiologic finding, treatments of the case and reviewed the literatures of this disease entity.
