Popis: Abstract We describe a case of an elderly man with Citrobacter freundii‐associated infectious rupture of a dissecting thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm. We performed an emergency thoracoabdominal aortic replacement using a rifampicin‐soaked prosthetic graft and omental flap wrapping. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 255, although he experienced pseudomembranous enteritis and paraplegia.
