A 62-year-old man developed a mycotic infrarenal pseudoaneurysm at the re-entry site of a previous aortic dissection. The aortic dissection had occurred one year earlier while he was undergoing coronary bypass surgery. The patient was successfully treated with a Dacron bifurcation graft after the mycotic aneurysm had been sterilized. Causes and relationships of the mycotic pseudoaneurysm to aortic dissection and aortic balloon support are discussed.
