Takayasu arteritis which is reported more commonly from Asia and in females can present as middle aortic syndrome with lower limb claudication. We present a case of a young male with Takayasu arteritis with middle aortic syndrome and Winslow pathway collaterals with lower limb ischaemia, hypertension, coronary occlusion and stroke.
