Abstract

Mycotic pseudoaneurysms of the iliac arteries are extremely rare and are caused by infection of the artery wall. It is difficult to diagnose early due to its silent manifestation. We present a case of a 64-year-old man with an isolated left common iliac artery pseudoaneurysm caused by Candida albicans who presented with thrombophlebitis, abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting associated with fever, which was successfully treated with interposition grafting and antibiotic therapy. We present this case to highlight that aneurysms and other vascular lesions can affect different arteries in the body and may therefore only be discovered during routine investigations of non-specific symptoms.
