[Takayasu's arteritis. A rare differential diagnosis in fever of unknown origin].
We report a case of Takayasu's arteritis as a cause of fever of unknown origin in a woman from Somalia. In patients with fever of unknown origin, it is important to consider the rare differential diagnoses and repeat physical examination despite easy access to high-technological examination methods.
