"Sore buttock syndrome": aseptic inflammation of the gluteal region following cardiopulmonary bypass

H Shafei and WH Bain
Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Western Infirmary, Glasgow, Scotland, UK.

Aseptic inflammation of the gluteal region is a not uncommon cause of early postoperative morbidity following open heart surgery in our patients. We believe that this condition may result from local ischaemia induced by pressure during the period of reduced perfusion on cardiopulmonary bypass. To date, this complication has not been described.
