Abstract
A 62-year-old man developed an infected left carotid endarterectomy with false aneurysm formation and subsequent bacteremia after staged carotid endarterectomies. He was found to have a right frontal lobe hemorrhage that developed into a staphylococcal brain abscess. We postulate there was bacterial seeding of the hematoma resulting in brain abscess formation.Entities:
