A 70-year-old woman with a bioprosthetic aortic valve replacement for aortic valve endocarditis complicated by recurrent endocarditis and requiring homograft aortic root replacement 10 years earlier had presented at 1 month after her admission for pseudomonal bacteremia with right-sided chest pain. An aortic pseudoaneurysm, identified on computed tomography, was treated with an ascending aorta thoracic endovascular aortic repair using two overlapping abdominal aortic stent grafts in the ascending aorta. Postoperative and follow-up imaging demonstrated exclusion of the pseudoaneurysm with stable positioning of the stent grafts. Ascending aorta thoracic endovascular aortic repair can be performed safely with good short-term results in patients presenting with infected pseudoaneurysms of the ascending aorta.
