Introduction
Mycotic aortic aneurysms are a rare presentation of aortic disease,
taking account of less than 1% of all aneurysms in the Western
World1,2. Conventional treatment consists of open
aneurysm repair, however, this has become less popular due to favourable
outcomes of endovascular stent grafting4,5. In this
case report we describe a severe and lethal course following
endovascular endografting of a mycotic thoracic aneurysm.
