A 62-year-old female was diagnosed of spinocerebellar degeneration four years previously. She was admitted to our hospital because of congestive heart failure. Echocardiography revealed severe aortic regurgitation and computed tomography showed dilatation of the sinus of Valsalva. She received aortic root replacement. Anesthesia was induced with fentanyl, propofol and vecuronium, maintained with propofol and remifentanil. There was no sign of postoperative exacerbation of neurological findings. She was discharged uneventfully 12 days after the operation.
