Résumé

Cerebral mycotic aneurysms represent a rare but life-threatening complication of infective endocarditis (IE), with high mortality rate when ruptured. Due to the lack of randomized controlled trials, management of infectious aneurysms complicating endocarditis remains a controversial topic. We describe a case of Clinicians should be mindful of the rare, potentially severe complication of IE with cerebral mycotic aneurysms to enable prompt treatment. Generally, central nervous system procedures are performed prior to cardiac surgical management of IE, since cardiopulmonary bypass may exacerbate cerebral haemorrhage, ischaemic damage, and oedema in areas of blood-brain barrier disruption. A multidisciplinary collaboration is crucial for optimal patient management.

Discussion UNASSIGNED
Clinicians should be mindful of the rare, potentially severe complication of IE with cerebral mycotic aneurysms to enable prompt treatment. Generally, central nervous system procedures are performed prior to cardiac surgical management of IE, since cardiopulmonary bypass may exacerbate cerebral haemorrhage, ischaemic damage, and oedema in areas of blood-brain barrier disruption. A multidisciplinary collaboration is crucial for optimal patient management.
