Abstract :
We report a patient with Takayasu arteritis (TA) who initially received stent placement (SP) following percutaneous transluminal balloon angioplasty for stenotic lesion of the left subclavian artery and subsequently had recurrent in-stent restenosis three times. Every time restenosis occurred, percutaneous transluminal rotational arterectomy (RA) was performed. After all, the patient underwent axillo-axillary bypass and has remained asymptomatic for 10 months after the surgery. We suggest that surgical treatment is beneficial for in-stent restenosis in patient with Takayasu arteritis.
