Takayasu arteritis (TAK) is not an uncommon cause of vasculitis in Caucasian females, however, involvement of bilateral carotid artery is a very rare presentation. We are presenting a 31-year-old young Caucasian female who presented with left-sided neck pain, headache and was subsequently found to have vasculitis of bilateral carotid arteries.
