Coronary artery mycotic aneurysm following endocarditis of a composite aortic graft--a case report and literature review.

J M Berkowitz1, S Lansman, B Fyfe.   

Abstract

Mycotic aneurysms of the coronary arteries are rare, with 15 reported cases. These frequently fatal lesions usually occur in a setting of subacute bacterial endocarditis involving native valves. The authors present the first report of mycotic aneurysm of the first diagonal coronary artery following infection of a composite aortic graft.
