A case of endovascular stent graft infection firstly seen made by E. faecium and E. coli; with an overview of subject

Öz

Endovascular stent- graft use is superior to conventional surgery in aneurysm repair by short times of hospitalisation and returning to normal life. Infection is one of the major complications occuring after endovascular stent- graft administration. We present a stent graft infection caused by Enterecoccus  faecium and E.coli together  which is reported firstly and  look over the approach to diagnose and medical treatment of a infection due to endovascular stent-graft surgery.

E. faecium ve E. coli’ye bağlı ilk kez görülen endovasküler stent greft enfeksiyonu ve konuya genel bakış

Öz

Anevrizma onarımında endovasküler stent greft kullanımı hospitalizasyon süresi ve normal yaşama dönme süresinin kısalığı nedeniyle konvansiyonel cerrahiye üstündür. Endovasküler stent greft uygulamasından sonra görülen en önemli komplikasyonlardan biri enfeksiyondur. Bu yazıda ilk kez Enterecoccus faecium ve E.coli birlikteliği ile ortaya çıkan stent greft enfeksiyonu sunduk ve endovasküler greft stent cerrahisine bağlı gelişen enfeksiyonun tanı ve medikal tedavisine yaklaşımı gözden geçirdik.    

Anahtar Kelimeler
