We experienced two cases of surgical repair in Takayasu’s arteritis. One case was a 37-year-old male patient admitted with the complaints of no pulsation of the radial artery and tingling sensation of left upper extremity. Aortogram and MRA (Magnetic Resorance angiography) revealed nearly complete obstruction of the proximal site of left subclavian artery and luminal narrowing of the left brachial artery on the peripheral angiogram. The other case was a 19-year-old male patient had undergone the none of left ulnar arterial pulsation. Aortogram showed the complete obstruction of the left subclavian artery. In each case, successful surgical treatment was accomplished with a bypass from the ascending aorta to the left subclavian artery using a ring tube graft and with a bypass between the left common carotid artery and left subclavian artery.
