    Author: Lin CY, Hong GJ, Lee KC, Tsai CS.
    Journal: Eur J Cardiothorac Surg; 2003 Aug; 24(2):320-2. PubMed ID: 12895636.
    Abstract:
    Salmonella mycotic aneurysms of the descending thoracic aorta are exceedingly rare. There are few case reports and even fewer reports of long term survival. The case of a 68-year-old female presenting with a mycotic aneurysm of the descending thoracic aorta caused by Salmonella species is described, which involved successful surgical intervention.
