Takayasu's arteritis and juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.
We describe a patient with the onset of polyarticular juvenile rheumatoid arthritis at age 7; she developed Takayasu's arteritis 12 years later. Her arthritis had been inactive until 15 months before the diagnosis of Takayasu's arteritis. The association of arthritis and Takayasu's arteritis is discussed.
