Abstract

Spontaneous resolution of the arterial obstruction in Takayasu's arteritis is rarely reported. We reported a case of spontaneous resolution of an obstruction of the left subclavian artery in a young female. The patient underwent a bilateral coronary patch ostioplasty for both coronary ostial lesions complicated by Takayasu's arteritis at the age of 28. Concomitant left subclavian obstruction was seen at that time but left untreated. Surprisingly, the 10-year follow-up angiogram revealed complete resolution of the left subclavian artery obstruction. Meanwhile, no specific medical treatment was administered.
