A mycotic aneurysm is an uncommon, but serious, complication of infective endocarditis, occurring as a result of an infected embolus being lodged in the vasa vasorum or lumen of an artery. Involvement of the ulnar artery is rare, but its peripheral location renders its diagnosis more simple. A case of mycotic aneurysm of the ulnar artery complicating infective endocarditis is reported, with successful management by ligation and excision.
霉菌性动脉瘤是感染性心内膜炎一种罕见但严重的并发症,是由于感染性栓子嵌顿于动脉滋养血管或动脉管腔内所致。尺动脉受累罕见,但其外周位置使其诊断更为简单。本文报道1例并发感染性心内膜炎的尺动脉霉菌性动脉瘤病例,并通过结扎和切除成功治愈。
