RESUMEN

Subclavian steal syndrome is a relatively rare condition that results from occlusion of the subclavian artery proximal to the origin of the vertebral artery. This causes a reversal in the direction of the blood flow in the vertebral artery, leading to symptoms of vertebrobasilar insufficiency. In this article, we report a case of subclavian steal syndrome in a 55 year old male, who presented with giddiness, and variation in blood pressures in both upper limbs, was investigated with doppler and MR angiography. This article emphasises physical examination with discrepancy in pulse and blood pressure should bring attention to diagnosis of this syndrome.
