    Abstract:
    Postcoarctation mycotic aneurysm of the aorta is very rare. We present a case of a 55-year-old man with postcoarctation mycotic aneurysm of the aorta infected with methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) after surgical treatment for cerebral arterial aneurysms. The operation was performed after negative conversion of MRSA in blood culture using antibiotics. The mycotic false aneurysm was completely resected following institution of an extra-anatomical bypass from the ascending aorta to abdominal aorta above celiac artery.
