We compared the clinical presentation, angiographic features, longitudinal patterns of disease activity, medical treatments, and survival in 34 TAK patients with stroke/TIA and 157 without stroke/TIA from a single-center retrospective cohort. TAK patients with stroke/TIA were older (<i>p</i> = 0.044) with a greater proportion of males (<i>p</i> = 0.022), more frequent vision loss (odds ratio (OR) for stroke/TIA vs. without stroke TIA 5.21, 95% CI 1.42-19.14), and less frequent pulse or blood pressure inequality (OR 0.43, 95% CI 0.19-0.96) than TAK patients without stroke/TIA.
