Unusual case of dystrophic calcification and thrombosis of an extra-anatomical graft in a patient with Takayasu’s arteritis

We report the case of a thrombotic occlusion of an extra-anatomical aortic bypass graft performed 37 years ago in a 46-year-old male with Takayasu’s arteritis. He presented with uncontrolled upper body hypertension, claudication pain in both the lower limbs, and kidney dysfunction which returned to...
