- Infected aortic aneurysm is a rare but deadly condition that can develop during hospitalization and was observed in a 73-year-old man with chronic renal failure and pneumonia.
- The patient showed symptoms like fever, anemia, and low platelet counts, and was treated with antibiotics for methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) pneumonia, resulting in a brief improvement.
- Despite initial treatment success, the patient later exhibited signs of an infected aortic aneurysm that continued to worsen, ultimately leading to his death on the 25th day of hospitalization.
