ABSTRACT

We present the case of a 21-year-old male patient with a history of Advanta thoracic aortic endoprosthesis placement in 2015, with the presence of a thrombus by computed tomography angiography. During surgery, the endoprosthesis was resected, as well as the placement of the Dacron graft. The finding was a thrombus with an infectious process that occluded almost the entire lumen. This case suggests that the surgical approach is the ideal management, considering the high morbidity and mortality in this type of cases. Interdisciplinary management is essential in any hospital center.
