1 Infected aortic aneurysm Glenda F. Medina MSN, RN, ACNP-BC Department of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery McGovern Medical School The University of Texas Science Center at Houston Memorial Hermann Heart & Vascular Institute

2 Infected (Mycotic) aneurysm Aneurysmal degeneration of the arterial wall secondary to infection. A serious clinical condition that is associated with significant morbidity and mortality

3 Case Study CC: Abdominal Pain, Nausea HPI: 68 yo female with PMHX of Hep C and HTN who presented to urgent care clinic for abdominal pain and nausea for 1 month. Abdominal US demonstrated small abdominal aortic aneurysm and was discharged. Her PCP referred to GI services, and EGD was performed with findings of gastritis. The patient was further planned for colonoscopy. However, abdominal pain increased and she presented to ED with the following findings: VS: HR 100 BPM, BP 169/92, RR 11, O2 SAT 98% RA, TEMP 97.2 F LABS: K 2.8, CR 0.9, BUN 6, ALT 55, AST 124, LIPASE 133, LACTIC ACIC 1.3, WBC 12.4, HBG 11.0, UA Negative CT A/P w contrast: 4.1cm saccular abdominal aneurysmal without evidence rapture or dissection. Correlate clinically for aortitis

4 Case CT image

5 Case Study 10 days after initial presentation to ED patient returned to facility with complains of persistent severe abdominal, nausea, tarry stools and loss of appetite VS: HR 121 BPM, BP 196/103, RR 20, O2 SAT 98% RA, TEMP 97.0 F LABS: K 2.9, CR 0.73, BUN 7, ALT 51, AST 133, LACTIC ACID 1.4, WBC 18.7, HGB 12.1, UA Negative, INR 1.37 CTA C/A/P: contained rupture of a juxtarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm, poor perfusion to right kidney

6 Case CT image

7 Case CT image

8 Case Study CVS evaluation : mycotic thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm Recommendation: emergent repair HD#1 Emergency repair of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm using 26 mm Dacron tube graft and bypass to left renal artery with 10 mm Dacron graft with delayed closure for second look HD#3 Exploration of left chest and retroperitoneum with omental mobilization and covering of woven Dacron graft with formal closure of chest and abdomen Surgical tissue culture : Streptococcus pneumoniae BC Negative x 2 ABX: Ceftriaxone 2gm IV Q24 HRS, x 2 months Discharged to LTAC

9 Etiology Direct bacterial inoculation Bacteremic seeding Contiguous/antecedent infection Endocarditis/septic emboli Impaired immunity

10 Microbiology Only 50-75% of cases are noted with positive blood cultures Most common bacteria found: Staphylococcus spp and Salmonella spp Fungal infections are rare and seen mostly on immunosuppressed population

11 Clinical Manifestations Acute Phase Chest/abdomen/back pain Fever Malaise Weight loss N/V Late Phase Pulsatile or enlarging mass GI Bleeding HF Acute or chronic mesenteric ischemia Dysphagia/hoarseness Hemoptysis

12 CTA MRI/MRA TEE PET CT US Imaging

13 Medical Management Antibiotic therapy Blood and fungal cultures prior to any antibiotic infusion Vancomycin, Ceftriaxone, Zosyn ID consult 6 weeks of IV ABX Possible need for life long suppressive oral antibiotic therapy

14 Surgical Management Open Surgical repair Pt with low or tolerable comorbidities Cryopreserved homograft Prosthetic grafts Antibiotic beads Omentum flap Endovascular repair Pt with high comorbidities Pt with high mortality rates Location of aneurysm Increased risk of persistent/recurrent infections

15 Take home points History and physical exam Blood test can be normal Diagnostic imaging CTA Saccular aneurysm
