✦ Synopsis

A 49-year-old woman with a history of Takayasu's arteritis underwent stent placement of the celiac and mesenteric arteries after unsuccessful balloon angioplasty. Stents may prove to be a beneficial alternative to angioplasty for treatment of the dense fibrotic leslons often associated with this disease.
