A Case of Pulmonary Artery Endarteritis With Patent Ductus Arteriosus

Article

Author: Nguyen, Huu C ; Pham, Dat T ; Dam, Son H ; Ninh, Quynh N

Right-sided heart endocarditis contributes to a small portion of infective endocarditis (IE) cases. Right-sided endocarditis related to undiagnosed congenital heart defects is even more scarce. Prompt diagnosis by transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), aggressive antibiotics from the beginning, and surgical removal of the vegetation for IE help prevent the risk of multi-organ failure and fatal pulmonary embolism. This is a case of a 38-year-old female, with normal medical history and recent vaginal birth at a district hospital four months ago. She was admitted to the hospital because of fever and continuous shortness of breath one month before admission. TTE detected vegetation (10x23 mm) on the left pulmonary artery and patent ductus arteriosus. A CT scan showed several abnormal mobile mixed-echo masses in the left pulmonary artery and partial pulmonary embolism. The patient had surgery to remove the vegetation and close the patent ductus arteriosus. The patient was stable after surgery and discharged two weeks after surgery. She continued two-week oral antibiotics at home and made a follow-up appointment one month later. Pulmonary artery endarteritis associated with patent ductus arteriosus is a rare lesion and has a high risk of death. The diagnosis should be considered in any febrile, septic patient with congenital heart disease. Removing vegetation and aggressive antibiotic treatment should be performed together to improve the outcome.

A Case of Fournier's Gangrene in a Patient with Human Immunodeficiency Syndrome

Article

Author: Odalys, Frontela ; Abdelmoneim, Sahar S ; McIntyre, Mariah K ; Angly, Sohair ; Lopez, Milenis

Fournier's gangrene (FG) is a type of necrotizing fasciitis affecting the abdomen or perineum. It is a polymicrobial infection that progresses to an obliterating endarteritis, causing thrombosis and subsequent tissue necrosis, allowing pathogenic invasion of interfacial planes.Patients with Fournier's gangrene typically have underlying systemic conditions that cause vascular insufficiencies or immunosuppression. This case describes a 55-year-old male patient with a medical history significant for HIV, obesity (BMI of 37), and smoking. The patient presented with generalized symptoms along with localized edema and erythema of the scrotum. Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) aided in evaluating the deeper structures for accurate diagnosis of Fournier's gangrene. Treatment followed current standards, including empiric antibiotics, analgesia, and surgical incision and drainage. The patient experienced an uncomplicated postoperative recovery despite his comorbidities due to prompt diagnosis and treatment.

Emergency autologous vein graft reconstruction after vascular closure device usage and subsequent infection

Article

Author: Gordon, Lauren ; Chio, Jonathon Chon Teng ; Roche-Nagle, Graham

Different techniques and devices can achieve haemostasis after endovascular procedures to reduce time to haemostasis and facilitate percutaneous large-bore access. One such device is the Angio-Seal, which accomplishes haemostasis by compressing a collagen plug against the arteriotomy. Multiple complications related to Angio-Seal exist, most commonly acute artery occlusions and rarely infections and endarteritis. We present a case of an adult male (aged 80–85) who developed a groin haematoma associated with Angio-Seal use. Arterial bypass for arterial reconstruction and intravenous antibiotics were required. This case addresses the associated pathologies of Angio-Seal failure and Angio-Seal infection, patient- and device-specific risk factors and measures to treat and prevent these complications (ANGIO-SEAL VIP Vascular Closure Device—6 Fr Terumo Medical, NJ, USA).
