일차성 Streptococcus pneumoniae 균혈증에 동반된 흉부 하행 대동맥염 1예 = A Case of Aortitis Associated with Primary Streptococcus pneumoniae Bacteremia

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Bacterial aortitis is rare and without surgical intervention, it usually leads to uncontrolled sepsis or catastrophic hemorrhage, ultimately, resulting in death. In the postantibiotic era, the dominant infecting organisms are Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella spp.. In spite of frequent pneumococcal bacteremia, vascular seeding is rare and there is only one published report in Korea. We describe a 77-year-old female with primary pneumococcal bacteremia followed by aortitis of the descending aorta, which was successfully treated by aneurysmectomy, wide excision of periaortic tissue, aortobiiliac bypass via prosthetic graft, and antibiotic therapy.
