From: Salmonella aortitis treated with endovascular aortic repair: a case report
A series of abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan studies from the patient, the first at the time of diagnosis one week before endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) and regular follow-up computed tomography (CT) scans one week after EVAR and after three, six, 12 and 15 months. The initial intramural hematoma and soft tissue stranding has completely disappeared three months after EVAR and no signs of persistent or relapsed infection are detectable on follow up scans. Three months after discontinuation of antibiotic therapy (15 month after EVAR) there are no signs of relapse.
