We report a 73-year-old man with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) who developed Sweet's disease after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB). Coronary angiography showed severe 3 vessel disease. We conducted OPCAB on triple vessels using bilateral internal thoracic artery and saphenous vein grafts. He had a high fever and rubor around the median skin incision on 5 postoperative day. Skin biopsy demonstrated acute febrile neutrophilic dermatitis (Sweet's disease). The cutaneous lesions improved gradually by corticosteroids. A careful attention should be paid postoperatively in a patient with hematological disorders such as MDS, aplastic anemia, and malignancy.

D011183 Postoperative Complications Pathologic processes that affect patients after a surgical procedure. They may or may not be related to the disease for which the surgery was done, and they may or may not be direct results of the surgery.

D000787 Angina Pectoris The symptom of paroxysmal pain consequent to MYOCARDIAL ISCHEMIA usually of distinctive character, location and radiation. It is thought to be provoked by a transient stressful situation during which the oxygen requirements of the MYOCARDIUM exceed that supplied by the CORONARY CIRCULATION.

D016463 Sweet Syndrome Condition characterized by large, rapidly extending, erythematous, tender plaques on the upper body usually accompanied by fever and dermal infiltration of neutrophilic leukocytes. It occurs mostly in middle-aged women, is often preceded by an upper respiratory infection, and clinically resembles ERYTHEMA MULTIFORME. Sweet syndrome is associated with LEUKEMIA.
