Salmonella enteritidis commonly caused aortic wall destruction in 14 patients. While surgery offered better survival, stentgrafts (SG) showed potential for debilitated patients with aortic infections.

Area of Science:

  • Vascular Surgery
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Medical Imaging

Context:

  • Bacterial destruction of the aortic wall presents a significant clinical challenge.
  • Salmonella enteritidis is a frequent pathogen in these cases.
  • Diagnosis often involves sepsis, pain, positive blood cultures, and CT imaging revealing pseudoaneurysms or hemorrhage.

Purpose:

  • To present a cohort of patients with bacterial aortic destruction.
  • To evaluate treatment outcomes comparing open surgery and endovascular stentgraft (SG) repair.
  • To discuss the indications and risks of SG deployment in septic aortic conditions.

Summary:

  • Fourteen patients with bacterial aortic destruction, primarily due to Salmonella enteritidis, were treated.
  • Surgical repair was performed in five patients, with all surviving.

  • Eight patients received stentgrafts (SG), with two fatalities; however, midterm results suggest potential utility in highly debilitated patients.
  • Aortoduodenal fistula and pseudoaneurysms were noted complications.

    • Impact:

    • This study highlights the critical management decisions in bacterial aortic disease.
    • It provides insights into the comparative efficacy and risks of surgical versus endovascular interventions.
    • Findings may influence treatment strategies for high-risk patients with infected aortic pathologies.
