Rapid formation of aortoesophageal fistula complicated by mycotic thoracic aortic aneurysm secondary to infective endocarditis
Rev Esp Enferm Dig. 2024 Mar 25. doi: 10.17235/reed.2024.10397/2024. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA 73-year-old man was admitted with four weeks of intermittent fever. He had a history of total aortic arch replacement for aortic arch aneurysm four years prior. CT scans showed no abnormalities before admission. Repeated blood cultures yielded Streptococcus anginosus and Prevotella melaninogenica, suggesting infective endocarditis (IE). Transesophageal echocardiography revealed a vegetation on the aortic valve, confirming IE. He suddenly presented with massive hematemesis and hypotension. Endoscopy revealed an elevated lesi...
