Key words: Takayasu’s disease, Crohn’s disease
Report of two cases of Takayasu’s disease: in the first one, the disease affected a young male patient being treated for Crohn’s disease, whereas in the second one, it affected a girl. The disease was easily diagnosed owing to the presence of a painful and palpable carotid, and was complicated by migrant thrombophlebitis due to vasa vasorum inflammation. The disease resisted to every treatment.
