The diagnosis and treatment of a mycotic coronary artery aneurysm: a case report.

Aneurysms of the coronary arteries are rare and are usually associated with atherosclerosis in adults. Mycotic coronary artery aneurysms are exceedingly uncommon and are typically associated with systemic bacteremia, endocarditis, or septic emboli. Literature and data describing the management of mycotic coronary artery aneurysms are limited. This case describes the successful diagnosis of a large right coronary artery aneurysm by transesophageal echocardiogram as well as the successful management of the aneurysm.

Mycotic aneurysm of the left anterior descending coronary artery after coronary artery bypass graft surgery.

Mycotic aneurysms of the coronary artery are extremely uncommon and can be very difficult to diagnose. We report a unique case of a mycotic aneurysm of the left anterior descending coronary artery with a history of two-vessel off-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery 9 months previously. The aneurysmectomy was successful.
