Aoic arch syndrome is also known as:: (A) Takayasu's aeritis, (B) Kawasaki disease, (C) Churg Strauss syndrome, (D) Giant cell areritis
Answer is A. Takayasu's aeritis is an inflammatory and stenotic disease of medium and large-sized aeries characterized by a strong predilection for the aoic arch and its branches. For this reason, it is often referred to as the aoic arch syndrome. Ref: Harrison's principle of internal medicine 17th edition, chapter 319.
