A 38-year-old woman was admitted to this hospital because of intermittent claudication in the lower limbs for 2 years. Lower limb pulsations were absent bilaterally. She was evaluated and diagnosed to have Takayasu arteritis (TA). The magnetic resonance angiogram revealed a right arch of aorta with aberrant left subclavian artery (LSA). An association of TA with right aortic arch and aberrant LSA has not been reported so far. |
