Although it is not typical normal flora of the gastrointestinal tract, it has been reported to be present in 10%–63% of normal appendices. Because 85% of C septicum infections are associated with an underlying gastrointestinal or hematologic malignancy, an exhaustive search for an occult malignancy is warranted if one has not already been identified (1). C septicum–associated colon carcinomas and/or intra-abdominal infections can lead to seeding of the aorta, which causes inflammation of the vessel wall resulting in disruption and gas infiltration of the layers of the aortic wall, and complications of acute aortic dissection and aneurysm have been reported (2). C septicum aortitis is exceedingly rare, and the reported overall mortality rate is estimated to be 64% within 6 months and 100% without operative intervention (2) (Figs 1–3).Figure 1a. C septicum aortitis in a 63-year-old man who presented with acute abdominal pain. (a) Axial (left) and coronal (right) contrast-enhanced CT images show several foci of mottled gas (arrows) within the ulcerated wall of the abdominal aorta, with perivascular inflammation. (b) Axial (left) and coronal (right) contrast-enhanced CT images (lower level than in a and b) show a large, nearly obstructing cecal mass straddling the ileocecal valve (arrows), a finding consistent with a primary malignancy. (c, d) Colonoscopic image (c) and photomicrograph (d) help confirm the diagnosis. In d, Gram stain shows aggregates of blue-purple gram-positive bacilli (arrow) infiltrating the aortic wall.Figure 1a.Download as PowerPointOpen in Image Viewer Figure 1b.
