Abstract:Objective To analyze clinical features of Takayasu's arteritis(TA) patients complicated with coronary artery lesions.Methods Four hundreds and seventy-four TA patients who were admitted in Beijing Anzhen Hospital,Capital Medical University from July 2003 to June 2015 were retrospectively analyzed;62 patients with coronary artery involvement were selected as observation group.One hundred and twenty-four patients with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease were selected as control group.Clinical data,erythrocyte sedimentation tate (ESR),C-reactive protein (CRP) and features of coronary artery lesions were analyzed.Results There were more female patients in observation group;there were less patients with hyperlipemia history,diabetes history,smoking and more patients with ESR >20 mrn/1 h and CRP > 15 mg/L than those in control group[67.7% (42/62) vs 23.6% (28/124),17.7% (11/62) vs 41.9% (52/124),3.2% (2/62) vs 26.6% (33/124),4.8% (3/62) vs 41.1% (51/124),35.5% (22/62) vs 3.2% (4/124),46.7% (29/62) vs 16.9% (21/124)];the differences were significant (P < 0.05).Cardiovascular symptoms had no significant differences between groups (P > 0.05).Headache and pain of limbs [66.1% (41/62)],hypodynamia [58.1% (36/62)] and hypertension[56.1% (35/62)] were common symptoms in patients with TA involving coronary artery.Left main coronary and coronary ostium involving rates in observation group were significantly higher than those in control group[8.5% (12/142) vs 3.3% (6/180),40.1% (57/142) vs 7.2% (13/180)] (P < 0.01);proximal coronary artery and middle coronary artery involving rates in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group[18.3% (26/142) vs 32.8% (59/180),21.1% (30/142) vs 35.6% (64/180)] (P < 0.05).Conclusion Takayasu arteritis complicated with coronary artery lesions is more common in female,left main coronary artery and coronary ostium.
