A 66-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with right hemiplegia due to a cerebral infarction associated with Takayasu arteritis. We successfully performed percutaneous transluminal angioplasty for stenoses of the innominate and right common carotid arteries. Improvement of the stenotic lesions persisted over 10 years.
