Abstract

We herein report on a 29-year-old woman who presented with edema and proteinuria. In light of her blood pressure differences and, finally, with the angiographic findings, Takayasu arteritis (TA) was the diagnosis. Renal biopsy showed focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and other possible etiologic alternatives were excluded. This was a very rare association and we could not find any other cases reported on TA accompanied with FSGS before. A poor treatment response was observed at the end of a 1-year therapy.

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on medication adherence

Live: Thursday 27th June 2024, 18:00-19:30 (CEST)

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
