We report a case of a 44-year-old man with restenosis of coarctation of aorta (CoA). He had a history of descending aortic replacement for CoA using a graft 14 mm in diameter at 29 years ago. He had reoperation because of pressure gradient of 61 mmHg across the graft and intermittent claudication. Reoperation was done under unilateral lung ventilation with lung collapsed, through 3th and 5th interspace thoracotomy. Left lung adhesion was carefully released with an ultrasonically vibrating scalpel. After full heparinization, femoro-femoral bypass was started and descending aorta was clamped. The old graft was excised, and descending aortic replacement was done with a new graft of 26 mm in a diameter. His postoperative course was uneventful. The intermittent claudication disappeared.
