Abstract

Although mycotic (infected) aneurysms are uncommon, they can affect any artery. The most frequently involved vessel is the aorta as well as femoral and cerebral arteries. A vascular-colonic fistula from infected aneurysms is even rarer, which remains a challenge for diagnosis and treatment. In this case report, we aimed to illustrate an 89-year-old man presenting initially with an aneurysm of the right common iliac artery. Forty days later, this lesion was infected and produced fresh blood in the rectum and sigmoid colon observed by colonoscopy. The final diagnosis of this case was a right common iliac artery aneurysm-colonic fistula due to infection. The patient was successfully diagnosed and treated with surgery at our hospital.
霉菌性动脉瘤合并髂动脉-结肠瘘
虽然真菌性(感染)动脉瘤并不常见,但它们可以影响任何动脉。最常受累的血管是主动脉、股动脉和脑动脉。由感染动脉瘤引起的血管-结肠瘘更为罕见,这对诊断和治疗仍然是一个挑战。在这个病例报告中,我们的目的是描述一个89岁的男性,最初表现为右髂总动脉动脉瘤。40天后,该病变被感染,结肠镜观察到直肠和乙状结肠产生新鲜血液。最终诊断为右髂总动脉动脉瘤-结肠瘘,原因是感染。患者在我院成功诊断并接受手术治疗。
