“…6 Secondary ADFs occur due to mechanical erosion of a prosthetic graft through the bowel following vascular surgery and have a higher incidence (0.5-2.3%). 6 A predominance for the duodenum is explained by anatomical aspects. 6 Infection of an aortic aneurysm is a rarity, with an incidence of approximately 1%, most commonly caused by Staphylococcus and Salmonella.…”

Patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) are prone to vascular infection with chronic Q-fever. There is a rising incidence of up to 8% of chronic Q-fever in The Netherlands. Increased vascular aortic aneurysm infection with chronic Q-fever is reported. This report shows two rare cases of primary aortoduodenal fistulae in patients with chronic Q-fever and an AAA. We describe the clinical symptoms, diagnostic tools for detection of Coxiella burnetii infection and treatment.

Aorto-Enteric Fistula (AEF) can be primary or secondary to surgery. The authors describe a case of death due to acute gastrointestinal hemorrhaging, resulting in primary AEF, in a patient who had undergone surgery in the past. The site and the pathological features of the lesion allow us to recognize the primary nature of the AEF, excluding remote surgery as a possible cause. The differential diagnosis is based on the patient's history and also on the anatomical characteristics of the lesion, such as location and extent.
