Abstract
|
|
|
We have experienced two cases of mycotic aneurysms of the superior mesenteric artery. The first case originated from septic embolism of infective endocarditis and the second case originated from salmonella enteritis eight months before. The
aneurysms
were diagnosed by abdominal ultrasonography and comfirmed by computed tomogram and angiography but the blood culture was negative in both cases at the time of the surgery. Both patient were successfully treated by resection only and the
restorations of
vascular continuity were not neccesary because of adequate collateral circulations to the intestine. Both patient's postoperative courses were uneventful after the follow up of one year and nine months, respectively.
