We report 2 patients with symptomatic aortic aneurysm and serologic evidence of acute Q fever with positive Coxiella burnetii PCR in blood/tissue. This suggests a role for acute Q fever in aneurysm progression. Diagnostic testing for Q fever infection in patients with symptomatic aneurysms in Q fever areas is recommended.
我们报告了2例有症状的主动脉瘤患者,他们有急性Q热的血清学证据,血液/组织中伯氏考克斯体PCR检测呈阳性。这表明急性Q热在动脉瘤进展中起作用。建议对Q热流行地区有症状动脉瘤患者进行Q热感染的诊断检测。
