Article Abstract
Surgical treatments of aortic root involvement in aortitis syndrome are frequently complicated by valve detachment and pseudoaneurysmal formation during active inflammation. A 40-year-old woman with aortitis syndrome complicating the ascending aortic aneurysm, severe aortic regurgitation (AR), and left coronary ostial stenosis was successfully treated by aortic root replacement and concomitant coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) during acute inflammation. We devised an intravalvular implantation between the fragile aortic annulus and Teflon felt to a modified Bentall's procedure, which prevented anastomotic leakage and pseudoaneurysmal formation in the late period.

Renal involvement in Takayasu arteritis (TA) has been reported, but glomerular lesions causing nephrotic syndrome (NS) are rare. This is a case report of TA presenting with NS due to secondary amyloidosis.A woman in her late 40s was diagnosed as TA at the age of 15 years presented with nephrotic range proteinuria.

Case Summary: A 20-year-old woman presented with acute coronary syndrome. Invasive coronary angiography revealed complete occlusion of the left main coronary artery. Subsequent computed tomography angiography demonstrated occlusion of the left subclavian, left vertebral, and superior mesenteric arteries, along with circumferential thickening of the abdominal aorta, consistent with Takayasu arteritis.

The fragility of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of large vessel vasculitis (LVV) - defined as the minimum number of outcome events that would need to change to reverse the trial's conclusions - has not been comprehensively studied. We identified relevant RCTs with a systematic literature review till April 2025. The fragility index (FI)/ reverse fragility index (RFI) and fragility quotient (FQ, i.
