          Bilateral coronary ostial stenosis and aortic regurgitation due to syphilitic aortitis.

          Coronary ostial stenosis in otherwise normal coronary vessels, is a rare complication of syphilitic aortitis, and most of the cases are found at autopsy. We report here a case in which bilateral coronary ostial stenosis and aortic regurgitation due to syphilitic aortitis was diagnosed; coronary artery bypass graft and aortic valve replacement were then performed. The macroscopic finding and the histopathological examination of the ascending aorta revealed the presence of syphilitic aortitis. It is important to note that syphilis is one of the causes of coronary ostial stenosis in young adults associated with aortic regurgitation.
