| Summary points: | A 34-year-old woman previously diagnosed with Takayasu's arteritis (TA) presents with headache, dysarthria, and left-sided weakness for 3 weeks. Phsysical examination, laboratory data, magnetic resonance imaging of the head, doppler ultrasound examination, magnetic resonance angiography, and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stenting are described. The authors suggest that nasal septal perforation could be a rare complication of TA and might be considered as a part of the clinical spectrum of the disease. |
