Article Synopsis
- Aortic stent-graft infections (ASGIs) are serious and can lead to high mortality rates; this study discusses two successful treatment cases with different approaches.
- Patient 1 received conservative treatment due to high surgical risk, while Patient 2 had endograft removal to address their infection; both patients showed no recurrent infection after 6 months.
- The study highlights that conservative treatment can be effective for high-risk patients, and it notes the first case of ASGI from Streptococcus haemolyticus and a fungal infection, along with a rare case of spondylodiscitis post-EVAR.
Massive and/or recurrent hemoptysis is a clear indication for surgical treatment of pleuropulmonary aspergilloma, despite the incidence of postoperative morbidity and mortality. Thoracoplasty has been widely used for 20 years and is still indicated in these cases, following lobectomy, even though the procedure is not free of complications. We report the case of a patient who required thoracoplasty to treat a pleuropulmonary aspergilloma invading the chest wall.
