Abstract
Mycotic aneurysms have a high mortality rate, predominantly driven by sepsis. We present a 61-year-old patient who was treated with a hybrid open-endovascular repair using autologous femoral vein as a single channel revascularization. This provided a practical and innovative approach to a high-risk situation.
