ALT_DEFINITION

A thrombo-obliterative process of the great vessels stemming from the aortic arch, occurring generally in young women. Radial and carotid pulses are typically obliterated. Skin changes are due to the disturbed circulation. There may be loss of hair and atrophy of the skin and its appendages with underlying muscle atrophy. (Andrews' Diseases of the Skin, 8th ed)

A large vessel granulomatous vasculitis affecting the aorta or its main branches and pulmonary arteries with angiographic findings of stenosis, occlusion, or aneurysm. Clinical findings include absent or asymmetric pulses (discrepancy in four limb blood pressure), bruits, hypertension, or elevation in acute phase reactants.
