title: [Bilateral symmetrical obliteration syndrome of the subclavian-brachial system in the elderly female].
abstract: The case of an elderly woman is reported, presenting with a bilateral-symmetrical occlusive disease of the subclavian-brachialis-axis in combination with Horton's arteriitis. Early intraarterial thrombolysis may be an appropriate first-line treatment to favourably influence complicated coagulation phenomena.
