“…One possible speculation of LV dysfunction in this case is that a chronic vascular inflammation had contributed to chronically elevated afterload resulting in LV systolic dysfunction. Although previous classical symptoms of TA (fever, arthralgia, malaise, and body weight loss) were not presented, advanced vascular lesions suggest the presence of a long standing history of TA, and we also observed a marked elevation in SVR (46.8 wood units) and systemic hypertension, as previously reported in patients with TA . Mild cardiac fibrosis detected by both endomyocardial biopsy and CMR was also consistent with chronically pressure overloaded heart.…”

“…However, the association between dilated cardiomyopathy and Takayasu's arteritis has been recorded in a few cases. 16 Both diseases have also been reported in association with other seronegative spondyloarthropathies. [17][18][19][20][21] These observations indicate a significant correlation among PA, dilated cardiomyopathy and Takayasu's arteritis, although the pathogenetic mechanism by which the three disorders are associated remains unknown.…”

A 40-year-old Japanese man with psoriatic arthritis (PA) involving the spine, sacroiliac and peripheral joints presented with dyspnoea and ankle oedema. Blood pressure was 180/110 and 114/80 mmHg in the right and left upper arms, respectively. Examinations showed left ventricular dilatation and diffuse hypokinesis of the left ventricle, with no involvement of the coronary arteries. Aortography detected total occlusion of the left subclavian artery and stenosis of the origin at the right renal artery. Dilated cardiomyopathy and Takayasu's arteritis associated with PA was diagnosed. A few cases of PA have been reported in association with cardiovascular diseases, but the association of these three diseases has not been documented in the literature to date. Dermatologists need to be aware of cardiovascular manifestations in patients with PA, because cardiovascular diseases are not rare in other seronegative spondyloarthropathies.

“…This inflammation may result in stenosis (even occlusive lesions) or ectatic changes mainly in the aorta and its major branches. 1,2 The involvement of the coronary artery is rare and is classified as type 5 of TA by Panja et al 3 Previously, isolated cases of TA associated with coronary fistulas were reported by Horimoto et al 4 and Ercan et al 5 Coronary arteriovenous fistulas (CAVFs) etiology can be congenital or acquired and are quite rare. They can arise from one of the coronary artery and drain into any of the cardiac chambers and/or great vessels.…”

Background Takayasu's arteritis (TA) is an inflammatory vascular disease of the young involving the large elastic arteries resulting in occlusive or ectatic changes, mainly in the aorta and its major branches as well as the pulmonary artery and its branches. Materials and Methods The authors reviewed the TA patients admitted over 2 years in their department and who underwent catheterization. They noted the clinical presentations, two-dimensional (2D) echocardiographic features, and angiogram details of all these patients. Results The study population constituted 24 patients with mean age of 28 years. Out of them, 21 (87.5%) were females. Most of the admitted TA patients presented with claudication complaints (79.2%), 37.5% patients had breathlessness, and 12.5% patients had typical stable angina symptoms. Five patients had 2D echo abnormalities, and rest of the patients had normal echocardiogram. Coronary angiogram (CAG) along with aortogram and selective peripheral arteriograms were performed of all these patients. Left main coronary artery (LMCA) disease was seen in three (12.5%) patients. Case details of two (8.3%) patients with multiple anomalous communications of the coronaries with pulmonary vasculature were described. Conclusion TA patients who came for catheterization were predominantly females, mainly involving the aorta and its main branches. In the authors’ TA series of patients, type 5 presentation was there in five (20.8%) patients (three cases of LMCA + two cases of coronary artery to pulmonary parenchymal fistulas). They propose to subclassify type 5 of TA, as they report coronary artery to pulmonary parenchymal fistulas along with the previous literature.
