ABSTRACT
Rare complications-1) Sarcoidosis, 2) Amyloidosis, 3) Phycomycosis-following surgical therapy for aortitis syndrome are reported. Sarcoidosis occurred in 39 y.o. female following Bentall operation for AAE and AR was diagnosed by biopsy and was controlled with drug completely 1 year after the onset. Amyloidosis found in 56 y. o. male after AVR and AAo plication for AAE and AR started with severe diarrhea and the diagnosis was made by autopsy. Phycomycosis was diagnosed by necropsy in 49 y. o. female after CABG and thoraco-abdominal bypass operation. Poor control of inflammation and administration of gluco-corticoid are the common problems for the 3 cases. Aortitis syndrome is autoimmune disease and some immunological factor has a role for the cause of the three complications. We must be very strict about the administration of the gludo-corticoid and the control of the inflammation.
