MATERIALS and METHODS: We evaluated the patients who underwent caroticosubclavian bypass surgery between the years 1999 and 2011 in our clinic. Total number of patients was 6 (5 female and 1 male). The mean age of the patients was 60.8±2.1 (48- 78). The patients presented with claducatio of upper extremities, headache, dizziness, and differences in arterial pressure between two arms. RESULTS: There were no complications after the carotico-subclavian bypass surgery. The differences in arterial pressure between the two arms disappeared together with the symptoms after the surgery. CONCLUSION: Carotico-subclavian bypass surgery is a procedure with low mortality and morbidity rates and good long term outcomes in patients with subclavian steal syndrome.}, number={2}, publisher={Aydin Adnan Menderes University}
