Salmonella-infected ruptured aortic aneurysms pose surgical challenges. In situ graft replacement with debridement and antibiotics offers a good short-term prognosis for these complex cases.

Area of Science:

  • Vascular Surgery
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Aortic Aneurysm Management

Background:

  • Salmonella-infected ruptured aortic aneurysms represent a significant surgical challenge.
  • Optimal management strategies for these critical cases remain debated.
  • Ruptured aortic aneurysms require urgent and effective intervention.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present clinical experience with Salmonella-infected ruptured aortic aneurysms.
  • To review existing literature on the surgical management of these infections.
  • To evaluate the efficacy of in situ graft replacement for infected aortic aneurysms.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of five patients with Salmonella-infected ruptured aortic aneurysms.
  • Description of surgical technique: in situ graft replacement and wide debridement.

  • Administration of long-term systemic antibiotic therapy.
  • Literature review of 26 previously reported cases.
  • Main Results:

    • All five patients underwent in situ graft replacement, debridement, and antibiotic therapy.
    • The chosen surgical approach demonstrated a good short-term prognosis in the presented cases.
    • Review of 26 cases supports the viability of in situ bypass reconstruction.

    Conclusions:

    • In situ bypass reconstruction is a justifiable surgical technique for Salmonella-infected ruptured aortic aneurysms.
    • This approach offers a favorable short-term outcome in acute situations.
    • Aggressive debridement and long-term antibiotics are crucial components of treatment.
