Answer: B: Takayasu aeritis 
Explanation: Takayasu aeritis is a granulomatous vasculitis of mediumsized and larger aeries characterized principally by ocular disturbances and marked weakening of the pulses in the upper extremities (hence the alternate name, pulseless disease). This disorder manifests with transmural scarring and thickening of the aoa--paicularly the aoic arch and great vessels--with severe luminal narrowing of the major branch vessels.
