title: [Differential diagnosis of Takayasu syndrome].
abstract: The difficulty of diagnosing the Takayasu syndrome is illustrated with reference to one of the authors' own cases. This rare disease can be the cause of misinterpretations and failure of treatment. In the case described, the patient was suffering from chronic vascular disease which had led not only to cerebral changes but also to an occlusion of the ciliary and retinal vessels.
