• W2074018049 abstract "Takayasu's arteritis (TA) is a chronic vasculitis involving mainly the aorta and its branches, as well as the pulmonary and coronary arteries. The classical definition of Takayasu's Arteritis is that of chronic, progressive, inflammatory, occlusive disease of the aorta and its branches. Although TA has a worldwide distribution, it is observed frequently in Asia than in North America. TA is the most common cause of renovascular hypertension in India, China, Korea, Japan and other countries of South East Asia.1Sharma B.K. Sagar S. Chugh K.S. Sakhuja V. Rajachandran A. Malik N.

An infectious etiology has been considered with one series reporting active tuberculosis infection in 60% of autopsy cases of non-specific aortitis.3Sen P.K. Kinare S.G. Kulkarni T.P. Parulkar G.B. Stenosing aortitis of unknown etiology.Surgery. 1962; 51: 317-325PubMed Google Scholar Various mechanisms such as post-infective, autoimmune, ethnic susceptibility and a genetic predisposition have been postulated. Autoimmunity appears to be the most plausible mechanism. Both cellular and humoral factors are probably involved. Defective T lymphocyte regulation and anti-endothelial antibodies have also been implicated. A provocative hypothesis put forward by Kothari S.S. explores the possibility of BCG vaccination as a triggering factor for TA in a susceptible population.4Kothari S.S.

Diagnostic approach and proposed criteria for the clinical diagnosis for Takayasu's arteriopathy.J Am Coll Cardiol. 1988; 12: 964-972Abstract Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (341) Google Scholar The criteria consisted of obligatory criteria of age less than 40 years. Two major criteria of left and right subclavian artery lesions and nine minor criteria include hypertension, a high erythrocyte sedimentation rate and arteriographic demonstration of lesions of different arteries. In addition to the obligatory criterion, the presence of two major criteria or one major plus two or more minor criteria, or four or more minor criteria suggests a high probability of TA. The criteria have a sensitivity of 84% in patients of TA. In 1990, the American College of Rheumatology suggested a set of criteria for the diagnosis of Takayasu arteritis.11Arend W.P. Michel B.A. Bloch D.A. Hunder G.G. Calabrese L.H. Edworthy S.M. et al.The American College of Rheumatology 1990 criteria for the classification of Takayasu's arteritis.Arthritis Rheum. 1990; 33: 1129-1134Crossref PubMed Scopus (1555) Google Scholar The criteria consist of (a) age <40 years (b) claudication of an extremity, (c) decreased brachial artery pulse, (d) >10 mmHg difference in systolic pressure between arms, (e) a bruit in subclavian arteries or aorta and (f) angiography evidence of narrowing or occlusion of the aorta, its primary or proximal branches. Presence of three of the six criteria is required for the diagnosis. These criteria have a 90.5% sensitivity and 97.8% specificity. Sharma et al. in 1995 suggested certain modifications in Ishiwaka's diagnostic criteria.12Sharma B.K. Siveski-Iliskovic N. Singal P.K. Takayasu arteritis may be underdiagnosed in North America.Can I Cardiol. 1995; 11: 311-316PubMed Google Scholar These modifications included (a) removal of the obligatory criteria of age, (b) the characteristic signs and symptoms being made one of the major criteria, (c) removal of age from defining hypertension, (d) deletion of the absence of aorto-iliac lesion from the ninth minor criteria and (e) an addition of a tenth minor criteria of coronary artery lesion in patients younger than age 30 years in the absence of risk factors such as hyperlipidemia, diabetes mellitus or any other known risk factor. The presence of two major or one major and two minor criteria or four minor criteria should suggest a high probability of TA (Table 1). These modified criteria seemed more sensitive for the diagnosis of TA in a series of 106 Indian patients with clinically and angiographically proven TA (Table 2).13Hoffman G.S.

The main and large pulmonary arteries are also affected as a part of generalized arteritis, with arteriography revealing a paucity of the pulmonary vessels in lobar or segmental distribution. According to the angiographic classification proposed by Ueda et al. and modified by Lupi HE et al. based on changes of vascular lumen, namely stenosis, occlusion, wall irregularity or aneurysm; angiographic findings can be classified into four types.15Park J.H.

Non specific aorto/arteritis a monograph based on a study of 101 cases. Tata McGraw Hill, Bombay1972Google Scholar Irrespective of the surgical procedures undertaken, the outcome appears to be favorable when the disease is quiescent. Surgical procedures are required for total aortic occlusion, severe aortic incompetence, critical central nervous system ischemia, aneurysms, renovascular hypertension, ostial lesions, tight stenosis, extensive renal segmental artery involvement, poorly functioning renal units, renal failure and, occasionally, in case of failure of angioplasty. Surgery for TA should be deferred in the active phase of the disease, which is characterized by an increased ESR, increased C-reactive protein and symptoms of fever, malaise or pain over the major arteries, or signs of progressive vascular involvement on angiography as the chances of thrombosis increase. Surgery is often difficult in the active disease period due to more bleeding, friable tissue and the high chance of thrombosis.
