Salmonella aortitis treated with endovascular aortic repair.

Salmonella aortitis is a known complication of Salmonella infection that usually requires surgical therapy. It is unknown whether endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) is an acceptable alternative to conventional aortic surgery for patients with Salmonella aortitis who are at high risk for perioperative complications. We therefore report 2 cases of Salmonella aortitis treated with EVAR and review the literature to further characterize previously published cases.
