ABSTRACT

The infectious aneurysm is a rare and potentially lethal cause of aneurysm if it is not precocious diagnosed; it is the total infection of the arterial wall. Its epidemiology is changeable and, originally the bacterial endocarditis was the main cause; currently it appears in elder people with atherosclerotic disease and in patients with immunologic compromise. We present the case of a male patient, aged 38 years with personal pathological antecedents of immunodepression, who assisted the consultation with thoracic pain. Due to several symptoms he presented, a series of complementary exams was made, showing as a result a great saccular aneurism located in the aortic arch; a possible infectious origin was suggested.
