title: Extraintestinal infection by group C Salmonella: a case report and review of the literature.
abstract: Infected or mycotic aneurysms of the aorta are not very frequent but they are associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. Vascular infections due to Salmonella are not very frequent, but in recent years the reports of infections of this type have been on the increase. The authors report their experience with a case of aneurysm of the abdominal aorta infected by group C Salmonella and go on to review the literature on the subject.
