[Aortic insufficiency and syphilitic coronary ostial disease. Pre- and postoperative angiographic aspects].
The authors report the case of a 50 year old patient with severe aortic incompetence (stage IV on angiography) and syphilitic left coronary ostial disease confirmed by complementary investigations. Management comprised aortic valve replacement and saphenous vein aorto-coronary bypass. The postoperative angiographic appearances showed normal valve function and a permeable aorto-left anterior descending bypass graft. The outcome was also satisfactory from the clinical point of view.
