A patient with angina pectoris and Sheehan's syndrome underwent off-pump coronary bypass grafting. Perioperative hydrocortisone and oral thyroxin replacement were used, and no relative complication was found postoperatively. Careful perioperative hormonal management is necessary and safe for patients with hypopituitarism to receive off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting.
