Takayasu's arteritis is a chronic inflammatory disease primarily involving large vessels. The diffuse, multifocal and progressive nature of the vascular lesions make surgical repair difficult. We describe successful carotid stenting of a 39-year-old female who presented with symptomatic, aggressive, long-segment carotid restenosis 6 months following left carotid endarterectomy. Repeat angiography 6 months later revealed continued patency.
