Mycotic aortic aneurysms were detected in four men aged between 47 and 73 years. The infective nature of the lesion was obvious in one case, while in the other three cases the diagnosis was suspected after radiological examination and confirmed by pathological and bacteriological investigations of the aneurysm wall. Radiological signs which suggest the presence of an infective aneurysm include rupture of the aneurysm, a rapidly progressing course, and unusual locations or morphology. Diagnosis is important as therapy differs from that of other types of aneurysm.
在4名年龄在47至73岁之间的男性中检测到真菌性主动脉瘤。在1例中病变的感染性质明显，而在其他3例中，经放射学检查怀疑诊断，并通过对动脉瘤壁的病理和细菌学检查得以证实。提示感染性动脉瘤存在的放射学征象包括动脉瘤破裂、病程进展迅速以及不寻常的位置或形态。由于治疗方法与其他类型的动脉瘤不同，因此诊断很重要。
