  • Title: Aortopulmonary fistula in a post-coarctation mycotic aneurysm.
    Author: DaValle MJ, Krieger KH, Spencer FC.
    Journal: Surgery; 1985 Jan; 97(1):93-6. PubMed ID: 3838116.
    Abstract:
    A 21-year-old man presented with fever and septicemia resistant to antibiotic therapy. An unusual post-coarctation mycotic aortic aneurysm that had eroded into the left main stem bronchus was identified and replaced with a Dacron graft. A critical factor in achieving the satisfactory result was preparation of the femoral vessels for autotransfusion and possible cardiopulmonary bypass.
