Background:
Melioidosis-related mycotic aneurysm (MA) is rare but a potentially life-threatening disease with high morbidity and mortality rate.
Case presentation:
We report a case series of mycotic aneurysm caused by Burkholderia pseudomallei and the subsequent outcomes. Here, we illustrate their clinical characteristics, laboratory results, radiological findings, mode of therapies and clinical outcomes.
Conclusion:
Melioidosis-associated MA may manifest in an atypical presentation. Its outcome is often lethal if antimicrobial therapy and surgical intervention are not offered promptly.
