Abstract
Although aortic aneurysms associated with Takayasu arteritis are not rare, a total occlusion of the thoracoabdominal aorta with enlargement is rare. We have experienced a 60-year-old man who underwent a second-stage surgery for thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm nine years after the prior operation of an ascending aorta-abdominal aorta bypass for atypical coarctation due to Takayasu arteritis. We present a successful case of the treatment result after 4 years’ follow-up.
