Inflammatory aneurysms of thoracic aorta are rare. Of all the aneurysms, only 5-10% are inflammatory in nature and are almost exclusively confined to the infrarenal segment of the aorta. We hereby present a patient with a large inflammatory aneurysm involving the thoracic aorta in association with mediastinal fibrosis and idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis.
胸主动脉炎性动脉瘤较为罕见。在所有动脉瘤中，只有5% - 10%本质上是炎性的，且几乎都局限于主动脉肾下段。我们在此报告一例患有累及胸主动脉的巨大炎性动脉瘤并伴有纵隔纤维化和特发性腹膜后纤维化的患者。
