Septic aneurysm (a. septicum) is an infectious disease that affects the walls of blood vessels and leads to the formation of an aneurysm. This disease can be caused by various bacteria, such as Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus, which penetrate the vessel wall and cause its inflammation and destruction.
Symptoms of a septic aneurysm may include abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, fever, and other signs of infection. If not treated promptly, it can lead to serious complications such as bleeding, ruptured aneurysm, and death.
To treat a septic aneurysm, antibiotics are used to kill the bacteria that cause the infection. Surgery may also be required to remove the aneurysm and restore the integrity of the vessel wall.
In general, septic aneurysm is a serious disease that requires timely treatment. If you suspect you have this condition, see your doctor for diagnosis and treatment.
An aneurysm is a dilation and protrusion of the arterial wall, which can result in an aneurysm of any artery in the human body. The danger of an aneurysm lies in the threat of its rupture, which can lead to massive hemorrhage into surrounding tissues or organs, even death. Most often, internal aneurysms form when a rupture of the inner layer forms protrusions into the artery.
