ABSTRACT
Takayasu arteritis is a nonspecific chronic inflammatory disease of the aorta and its major branches, which has a higher incidence during the child-bearing years. There have been several reports of Takayasu arteritis during pregnancy with Cesarean delivery under general or epidural anesthesia. However, there have been few reports of successful vaginal delivery under epidural analgesia. We report a case of successful vaginal delivery under epidural analgesia in a 31-year-old primigravida with a history of Takayasu arteritis.
