An a (AEF) is a rare but life-threatening condition where an abnormal connection forms between the aorta and the gastrointestinal tract, most commonly the duodenum. It can be primary (arising spontaneously due to an aortic aneurysm or infection) or secondary (complicating prior vascular surgery). Immediate recognition and surgical intervention are critical to manage severe gastrointestinal bleeding and prevent fatal outcomes.

Department of Radiology, Mie University Hospital, Tsu, Mie, Japan.
Purpose: To investigate the effectiveness and safety of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for infectious aortic diseases.
Materials And Methods: Patients who underwent TEVAR for infectious aortic diseases including infected thoracic aortic aneurysm, aortobronchial fistula (ABF), and aortoenteric fistula from December 2011 to October 2022 at 4 institutions were retrospectively studied. The primary outcome of the study was overall survival, whereas the secondary outcome was comprehensive adverse events.
