We herein describe a case with an acute aortic dissection, whose atherosclerotic coronary artery disease (CAD) could be accurately detected using a preoperative 64-row multidetector computed tomography (MDCT). Emergency surgery including a coronary artery bypass grafting and a total arch replacement were successfully performed without causing perioperative myocardial infarction. MDCT coronary angiography is a safe and noninvasive examination, therefore, we believe that MDCT coronary angiography should become a routine preoperative examination for patients with an acute aortic dissection in order to detect the presence of CAD.
