Coronary artery involvement is common in TA
Types of involvement: occlusion or stenosis of the coronary ostia and the proximal segments (type 1), focal or diffuse coronary arteritis (type 2) and coronary aneurysms (type 3)
Sun T. et al., 2013 [29] Study The most frequent sites involved are the coronary ostium and the proximal segment of the coronary arteries
Yang Y. et al., 2017 [31] Study Males tend to have more severe coronary stenosis and a higher risk for long-term mortality
Cobilinschi C. et al., 2021 [27] Case report Coronary involvement is linked the atherogenic profile of patients
Xu Y. et al., 2023 [28] Study The percentage of coronary lesions is pediatric TA is significantly higher than in the adult population

Common symptoms in TA with coronary involvement: angina pectoris, dyspnea on exertion, retrosternal chest pain as acute myocardial infarction
Biological Wang X. et al., 2016 [19] Study HsCRP can predict adverse cardiovascular events in TA with coronary artery involvement

Biological inflammation at revascularization increases the risk of vascular complications with reinterventions
Disease activity predicts progression in patients with TA and coronary stenosis
O’Connor T.E. et al., 2014 [33] Study Inflammatory markers are not reliable to distinguish active from inactive disease
Drug therapy Huang Z. et al., 2021 [21] Study Corticosteroids are used in combination with immunosuppressants, preferably before revascularization

Study
Revascularization techniques for coronary stenosis are PCI, PCI with drug-eluting stents and CABG
Coronary angioplasty and drug-eluting stent insertion have a high risk of restenosis
PCI is an alternative to CABG after patients reach remission of the disease with medical therapy
