Abstract
There is indirect evidence signifying a potential link between tuberculosis and Takayasu’s arteritis (TAK); however, the exact mechanism and relationship between TKA and Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB) remain to be elucidated. This case intends to highlight the association between TB and TKA, as early detection can avoid devastating consequences.
