Abstract

We report on a 43-year-old patient with septic aneurysm complicated by rupture of the pelvis of the kidney due to Salmonella enteritidis that we treated successfully by empiric therapy, then targeted antibiotic therapy and late surgical intervention with iliofemoral crossover bypass grafting and aneurysm resection. The course was complicated by deep neutropenia and chronic hepatitis C infection.
