Takaysu`s arteritis is an arteritis of unknown etiology involving larger elastic arteries. The end stage pathologic feature is vascular obstructive change and the resulting clinical manifestations are local ischemic symptoms such as syncope, visual disturbance, claudication of extremities, hypertension, and angina. Recently we have experienced one case of Takayasu`s arteritis involving aortic arch, left common carotid artery and left subclavian artery. The patient was 27 year-old female and she was admitted because of headache and neck pain. Aortogram revealed fusiform dilatation of left common carotid artery with focal narrowing on it`s distal portion. The patient underwent surgical resection and replacement of Dacron tube graft between distal and proximal left common carotid artery. 3 months after operation, she was readmitted because of shoulder pain and headache. Aortogram revealed focal narrowing of proximal left common carotid artery and total obstruction of left subclavian artery which caused subclavian steel syndrome. Aorto-left common carotid and aorto-left subclavian bypass graft replacement were done.
