Mycotic aneurysm of the abdominal aorta with retroperitoneal abscess: successful endovascular repair

Journal of Vascular Surgery
Thomas A KoeppelChristoph Dueber

Abstract

Mycotic aortic aneurysms are rare. Improved diagnostic procedures, appropriate antibiotic treatment, and safe surgical techniques have reduced the high mortality associated with bacterial aortitis. However, definite evidence-based conclusions with regard to the surgical strategy cannot be drawn from the data available in the published literature. We report successful endovascular repair of a mycotic abdominal aortic aneurysm. Endovascular treatment may offer a benefit, especially in critically ill patients.

Aortic Aneurysm

An aortic aneurysm is the weakening and bulging of the blood vessel wall in the aorta. This causes dilatation of the aorta, which is usually asymptomatic but carries the risk of rupture and hemorrhage. Find the latest research on aortic aneurysms here.

Cardiac Aneurysm

Aneurysm refers to a bulge of the wall or lining of a vessel commonly occurring in the blood vessels at the base of the septum or within the aorta. In the heart, it usually arises from a patch of weakened tissue in a ventricular wall, which swells into a bubble filled with blood. Discover the latest research on cardiac aneurysm here.

Aneurysm

Aneurysms are outward distensions or bulges that occurs in a weakened wall of blood vessels. Discover the latest research on aneurysms here.
