[Infected aneurysm of a branch of the superior mesenteric artery].
Aneurysm of the superior mesenteric artery is a rare finding. The risk of rupture is difficult to predict and manage. We report the case of a young woman who developed an aneurysm of the superior mesenteric artery in a context of bacterial endocarditis. Surgical resection without revascularization was successful.
