Hypereosinophilia and Multisite Vasculopathy of Fibromuscular Dysplasia: A Case Report

Abstract

The impact of blood disorders on fibromuscular dysplasia is unknown, and cardiovascular surgery results are also unclear. Furthermore, there are only a few case reports about the association between fibromuscular dysplasia and blood disorders. We report a case of a coronary bypass surgery and an aortic root replacement for a patient who is hypereosinophilic with multisite vasculopathy of fibromuscular dysplasia, including that of the coronary artery and saphenous vein, which was diagnosed by a histopathologic examination after an autopsy was performed 5 months after surgery. The outcome of cardiovascular surgery can be unfavorable for fibromuscular dysplasia. Blood disorders may also have an impact on the outcome.
