Abstract

Due to the specific pathogenesis of Takayasu arteritis, complicated with aortic valve disease, surgical treatment always has been a difficult problem. We report a 26-year-old female patient with Takayasu arteritis who was treated with the Ozaki procedure for aortic valve disease and replacement of the ascending aorta with a straight synthetic graft. The surgery achieved satisfactory early results.
