A 78-year-old male with aortitis syndrome was referred to our hospital for the treatment of unstable angina pectoris with ischemic mitral regurgitation, which was diagnosed by transthoracic echocardiography and coronary artery angiography. Computed tomography showed segmental wall thickness of thoracic and abdominal aorta He underwent an emergent coronary artery bypass grafting. The postoperative course was uneventful without any neurological complications. Postoperative echocardiogram and coronary artery angiography showed good mitral valve function and all patent bypass grafts. He was discharged 33 days after surgery. At 26 months after surgery, he is well without limitation of daily activities and any evidence of myocardial ischemia.
