Takayasu arteritis, manifested by convulsive syncope: a clinical case
https://doi.org/10.25789/YMJ.2020.71.32
Abstract
Takayasu arteritis (TA) has different clinical manifestations from asymptomatic to severe disease and can be complicated by neurological symptoms, but convulsive attacks in such patients are rarely registered. The presented clinical case demonstrates the difficulties of differential diagnosis of epileptic seizures and convulsive syncope in a rare course of Takayasu arteritis in a 19-year-old girl who treated recurrent paroxysms with impaired consciousness, convulsions and falls, motor automatism in the hands, which were regarded as pharmacoresistant epileptic attacks. Clinical examination showed severe arterial hypotension, and further examination revealed the diagnosis of non-specific aorto-arteritis.
