Successful treatment of a patient with Takayasu's arteritis presenting as subclavian steal syndrome secondary to bilateral occlusion of subclavian arteries: A case report

摘要

Takayasu arteriti (TA), büyük boyutlu arterlerde granülomat?z inflamasyon ile karakterize etiyolojisi bilinmeyen kronik bir vaskülittir. Genellikle arkus aorta ve dallar?n? tutar. Tart??mal? olmas?na ra?men hastal???n aktif olmayan evresinde aort ve dallar?n?n t?kan?kl??? i?in perkütan translüminal anjiyoplasti (PTA) tercih edilmektedir. Bizde bu yaz?m?zda remisyon periyodundaki bilateral endovasküler giri?imle tedavi edilen subklavian ?alma sendromlu bir olguyu sunduk. Takayasu's arteritis (TA) is a chronic vasculitis of unknown etiology, characterized by granulomatous inflammation of large-sized arteries. It usually involves aortic arch and its branches. It is controversial but percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) is preferred for non-active stenosis and occlusion of artery and aorta. We presented a case who was in remission period with subclavian steal syndrome treated with bilateral endovascular intervention.
