A 52-year-old man suffering from Behçet's disease had undergone 6 operations for recurrent aneurysms of the bilateral iliac and femoral arteries. Thereafter, the patient underwent graft replacement for abdominal aortic aneurysm. Six years later he complained of lower abdominal pain and back pain. Abdominal CT-scan revealed abnormality of the proximal anastomotic site. The proximal suture line was completely dehiscent. The distal edge of infra-renal abdominal aorta was closed with interrupted mattress sutures. A right axillo-iliac bypass using a Dacron graft was performed for arterial reconstruction of the lower extremity. The patient has been free of recurrence for 4 years after the operation.
