Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Infected abdominal aortic aneurysm is rarely associated with an antecedent history of a localized suppurative process. This report describes a case in which an infected aortic aneurysm occurred after surgical treatment of an appendiceal abscess. Diagnosis and management of infected aneurysms are discussed, together with a review of the literature.
