Abstract：
UNASSIGNED: Takayasu arteritis is a large-vessel vasculitis predominantly seen in young women. Lack of signs and symptoms in the early stage of the disease often delays the diagnosis and thus leads to significant morbidity and mortality. One severe complication that may arise is a significant narrowing of blood vessels, potentially leading to life-threatening ischemic repercussions.
UNASSIGNED: The authors present a case of a 29-year-old female who presented to our ER with features of left-sided hemiparesis and right-sided facial deviation. Computed tomography angiography and Carotid Doppler helped in making the diagnosis of Takayasu arteritis. She was managed with prednisolone and mycophenolate mofetil. She has been on a regular follow-up for the last year and is currently stable.
UNASSIGNED: Even being a rare scenario, stroke can be the initial presentation of Takayasu arteritis. Early diagnosis and management in young patients are vital in keeping the disease at bay and preventing physical, mental, and socio-economic adversities.

摘要：
■大动脉炎是一种大血管血管炎，主要见于年轻女性。在疾病的早期阶段缺乏体征和症状通常会延迟诊断，从而导致严重的发病率和死亡率。可能出现的一种严重并发症是血管明显变窄，可能导致危及生命的缺血反应。
■作者介绍了一例29岁的女性，她出现在我们的急诊室，其特征是左侧偏瘫和右侧面部偏斜。计算机断层扫描血管造影和颈动脉多普勒有助于诊断大动脉炎。她用泼尼松龙和霉酚酸酯治疗。去年她一直在定期随访，目前情况稳定。
■即使是罕见的场景，卒中可能是大动脉炎的初始表现.年轻患者的早期诊断和管理对于预防疾病和预防身体疾病至关重要，心理，和社会经济逆境。
