pubmed:abstractText |
The case of a heart transplant recipient with a ruptured aortic pseudoaneurysm caused by an Aspergillus fumigatus mediastinitis is reported. Contamination of surgical fields occurring by air seeding during surgery appears to be the most probable source of infection. Subtle infectious signs of the wound and subacute course are remarkable features of this case.
