  • Title: Infrarenal mycotic pseudoaneurysm. A late complication of coronary bypass surgery with proximal aortic dissection.
    Author: Riester WH, Serrano A.
    Journal: J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg; 1976 Apr; 71(4):633-6. PubMed ID: 1083457.
    Abstract:
    A 62-year-old man developed a mycotic infrarenal pseudoaneurysm at the re-entry site of a previous aortic dissection. The aortic dissection had occurred one year earlier while he was undergoing coronary bypass surgery. The patient was successfully treated with a Dacron bifurcation graft after the mycotic aneurysm had been sterilized. Causes and relationships of the mycotic pseudoaneurysm to aortic dissection and aortic balloon support are discussed.
