متن کاملMycotic aneurysm at site of formerly ligated ductus arteriosus caused by infective endarteritis.
The risk of developing infective endocarditis in relation to a pre-existing cardiac lesion varies according to the lesion. In persistent ductus arteriosus it is approximately one in every 300 patient-years. Assuming a 70 year life a patient with persistent ductus arteriosus has a 20% risk of developing infective endocarditis. After surgical closure it is presumed that this risk declines to that...
متن کاملMycotic False Aneurysm of the Aorta Following Aortic Valvular Prosthesis
A 39-year-old white man with acute rheumatic fever at the age of 19 years remained asymptomatic until 3 years before demise, when he started to have fainting episodes associated with chest pain and one year later symptoms of congestive heart failure. Examination at the Ohio State University Hospital showed signs of aortic stenosis, and cardiac catheterization revealed a pressure gradient of 90 ...
متن کاملDelayed non-mycotic false aneurysm of ascending aortic cannulation site.
Two cases of delayed non-mycotic false aneurysm arising from ascending aortic cannulation site, presenting one-and-a-hald years and seven years after cardiopulmonary bypass, are described. These two cases represent an incidence of 0.12% of this complication. Repair using profound hypothermia and circulatory arrest with femoral artery and femoral vein cannulation for cardiopulmonary bypass is re...
متن کاملMyocardial Infarction and Aortic Root Mycotic Aneurysm Complicating Aortic Valve Endocarditis: Utility of Cardiac CT
Aortic mycotic aneurysms are a rare but life-threatening potential complication of infective endocarditis. Rapid deterioration of the vascular wall in highly focal areas makes these pseudoaneurysms particularly prone to rupture, resulting in uncontrolled aortic hemorrhage. While computed tomography angiography (CTA) is the imaging modality of choice for the evaluation of mycotic aneurysms, it i...
