Takayasu`s arteritis is a chronic inflammatory disease involving the aorta and the arteries arising from the aorta. The pulmonary arteries also may be involved. The inflammation leads to either stenosis and occlusion of the involved artery or formation of aneurysm or both. The arterial lesions can lead to secondary hypertension, retinopathy, cardiac involvement, cerebrovascular event. The course and prognosis of patients with Takayasu`s arteritis shows wide variation. We experienced a case of rapid growing Takayasu`s arteritis presenting as nausea and vomiting at emergency department, which was confirmed by computed tomography and angiography, so reported it with a review of literature.
