    Author: Sirvanci M, Onat L, Karaman K, Yagan N, Sonmez B.
    Journal: Angiology; 2006; 57(1):103-6. PubMed ID: 16444464.
    Abstract:
    Tuberculous pseudoaneurysm of the aorta is a rare disease that is uniformly fatal if not treated properly. The authors present a case of a recurrent tuberculous false aneurysm of the descending thoracic aorta that was treated surgically with excision and primary repair of the lesion. To their knowledge, this is the first reported case of recurrent disease after a successful surgical treatment.
