[Pulmonary changes as a result of pulmonary artery involvement during Takayasu disease--case report].
We described a case of Takayasu disease with pulmonary artery involvement in a young woman with dyspnea, and multiple pulmonary infiltrations on chest radiogram. The changes were initially diagnosed and treated as protracted pneumonia. In the later stage of the disease the development of the typical inflammatory changes in the systemic arteries with absence of the left radial pulse suggested the diagnosis.
