          Abstract

          Resumen Introducción: los aneurismas micóticos son una entidad grave y poco frecuente, cuyo tratamiento quirúrgico se ha basado históricamente en la resección del tejido infectado y en la reconstrucción arterial. En los últimos años, la importancia del uso de técnicas de reparación endovascular ha ido en aumento. Caso clínico: se presenta el caso de una mujer de 84 años con un aneurisma micótico de la aorta visceral tratado mediante un abordaje híbrido. Se revascularizan las arterias mesentérica superior y hepática y, posteriormente, se coloca una endoprótesis de aorta. Discusión: el empleo de dispositivos endovasculares para la reparación de los aneurismas micóticos genera controversia debido a que no se elimina el tejido infectado. Sin embargo, existen publicaciones que avalan su uso, ya que permiten el tratamiento, principalmente, de pacientes de alto riesgo quirúrgico sin aumentar el número de complicaciones.

          Abstract Introduction: mycotic aneurysms are a serious and rare entity, whose surgical treatment has historically been based on resection of infected tissue and arterial reconstruction. In recent years, the importance of using endovascular repair techniques has increased. Case report: an 84-year-old woman with a mycotic aneurysm of the visceral aorta is presented, treated by a hybrid approach, revascularizing the superior mesenteric and hepatic arteries, and the placement of an aortic stent. Discussion: the use of endovascular devices for the repair of mycotic aneurysms generates controversy due to the maintenance of the infected tissue. However, there are publications that support its use since they allow the treatment mainly of patients at high surgical risk not increasing the rate of complications.
