- Abstract
The article presents a case study of a 25-year-old non-smoker man who experiences progressive increase in lower limb claudication. He was diagnosed with cephalobrachial hypertension and underwent extra-anatomical bypass for abdominal aortic coarction. A discussion on the prevalence of middle aortic syndrome, which is characterized by segmental steno occlusive lesion of distal thoracic or upper abdominal aorta, is given.
