ABSTRACT
Takayasu's arteritis is a rare systemic vasculitis affecting the aorta and its primary branches. In developing countries, it is often associated with late diagnosis and high morbidity and mortality. We report a case of Takayasu's arteritis diagnosed in the postpartum period and discuss the challenges faced for optimal outcomes during the ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic.
