Primary Aortic Infections and Infected Aneurysms

open access: yesAnnals of Vascular Diseases, 2010
Primary infections of the aorta and infected aortic aneurysms are rare and are life threatening. Most of them are due to bacterial infection occurring in an atheromatous plaque or a pre existing aneurysm during bacteremia. Rarely spread from a contiguous septic process may be the cause. The reported hospital mortality ranges from 16-44%.
