A 56 year-old Japanese women died suddenly after complaining of abdominal pain. Autopsy revealed typical aortic dissection with cardiac tamponade. Histologically, generalized granulomatosis with giant cells resembling sarcoidosis was found. The aorta was most strikingly affected so that granulomatous aortitis was regarded as the cause of the aortic dissection.
