Peripheral vascular expressions of Coxiella聽burnetti Q fever are not well known. Endocarditis with negative blood culture is the most frequent clinical presentation of chronic Q fever. To date, very few cases of aneurisms or vascular grafts infections have been described. We report the case of a 54-year-old man who presented an infrarenal abdominal aorta infection, leading to a giant pseudo aneurismal formation. Blood serology and polymerase chain reaction amplification identified C.聽burnetti from the aortic thrombus after pseudo aneurism surgery. The treatment associated infrarenal abdominal aorta repair using a cryopreserved aorta allograft, and long-term antibiotic therapy.
