Embolization of pulmonary and systemic mycotic pseudoaneurysms in a pediatric patient

Mycotic pseudoaneurysm is a rare complication of systemic infection in children. We report a case of a previously healthy 11-year-old female with methicillin-resistant staph aureus (MRSA) bacteremia who developed both pulmonary and systemic arterial pseudoaneurysms. These were detected on magnetic r...

description Mycotic pseudoaneurysm is a rare complication of systemic infection in children. We report a case of a previously healthy 11-year-old female with methicillin-resistant staph aureus (MRSA) bacteremia who developed both pulmonary and systemic arterial pseudoaneurysms. These were detected on magnetic resonance (MR) and computed tomography (CT) imaging and treated with coil embolization.
