Angioinvasive complications of Scedosporium infections are rare. We report two cases of mycotic aneurysm, following apparent localized infection, due to Scedosporium apiospermum and Pseudallescheria boydii. The thoracoabdominal aorta was affected in one patient, and cerebral vessels were affected in the other. Despite voriconazole therapy and surgical resection, the patients died. Previously re...
A 53-year-old male who was being followed up by a nephrology department because of type V crescentic glomerulonephritis was admitted with abdominal pain to our clinic. He was diagnosed with abdominal aortic aneurysm after the examinations. Aortic repair with a tubular graft was performed. Pathological examination of the aneurysm tissue showed fungal hyphae. We started antifungal chemotherapy wi...
A 43-day-old boy presented with bacteremia after umbilical artery catheterization. Duplex ultrasound examination revealed a 1.1- × 1.6-cm mycotic infrarenal aortic aneurysm and an incidental asymptomatic occluded right common iliac artery. Resection and repair were completed by creating an everted, double-layered internal jugular vein patch. Screening ultrasound examination 10 months postoperat...
A live, attenuated form of Mycobacterium bovis, bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG), is commonly used as intravesical immunotherapy for non-invasive urothelial bladder carcinoma. While complications are rare, dissemination can occur. A case of mycotic aortic aneurysm following BCG administration with recovery of Mycobacterium bovis in culture is reported. A review of the published experience with th...
We reported successful distal repair using the frozen elephant trunk technique to treat a mycotic aneurysm extending from the ascending aorta to the descending aorta. A blood culture sample was positive for Escherichia coli, and total arch replacement with a rifampicin-bonded graft covered the omental pedicle flap.
Burkholderia pseudomallei meningitis following inadequate treatment of melioidotic mycotic aneurysm.
We report a 64-year-old man presenting with meningitis caused by Burkholderia pseudomallei predisposed by persistent aortic graft infection following inadequate treatment of a melioidotic mycotic aneurysm. The relapse of melioidosis presenting as acute meningitis is a unique event. Successful treatment of deep-seated melioidosis can only be achieved when robust antimicrobial therapy is combined...
A healthy 54 year old man was investigated for haematuria. In spite of a proven urinary tract infection a cystoscopy was carried out with no antibiotic therapy. As a result he developed systemic infection leading to two independent, and potentially fatal, complications: vertebral osteomyelitis and a mycotic false aneurysm.
Melioidosis caused by Burkholderia pseudomallei infection is endemic in Southeast Asia and Northern Australia. Cardiovascular complications resulting in mycotic aneurysms are very rare. To our knowledge, there have only been 6 isolated case reports published in the literature to date. We report 6 cases of melioidosis in Singapore that presented as aortic aneurysms.
