Abstract

Subclavian steal syndome is known as reverse flow from vertabral artery to subclavian artery due to occlusion of proximal subclavian artery. Occlusive process leading to syndrome is common in left subclavian artery. Coronary-subclavian steal syndome may happen by reverse flow in left internal thorasic artery with occlusion in subclavain artery of patients who were performed coronary artery bypass grafting surgery using left internal thorasic artery. Subclavian steal syndome may occur during coronary artery bypass grafting surgery or postoperatively with progression of lesion. We want to represent a cases who has carotico-subclavian steal syndrome of which one was detected before and the other one was detected after the coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery.

Key words: Subclavian; Steal; Coronary heart disease, carotico-subclavian bypass
