      <Abstract>Takayasu arteritis (TAK) is a rare, medium- to large-vessel vasculitis characterized by inflammation and obliteration of arteries, most commonly the aorta and its proximal branches. Pulmonary artery involvement in TAK may also occur; this is characterized by nonspecific symptoms including dyspnea, chest pain or cough. TAK occurs predominantly in females with an average age of onset between 10-40 years. Additionally, TAK has been found to co-occur with ulcerative colitis (UC). This co-occurrence is thought to be related to the HLA-B*52:01 allele or other associated autoimmune cross-reactivity. In this case series, we explore the relationship between TAK and UC through two case reports involving this co-occurrence.</Abstract>
