This has not yet been documented as current recommendations for infective aortitis strongly suggest operative intervention combined with aggressive antibiotics, with very high reported mortality for non-operative management. Thus, the natural progression of sac growth during the acute infective period and in the long-term has had an opportunity to be explored.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A 77-year-old patient presented with infective aortitis confirmed on computed tomography angiography and refused operative intervention despite being explained the associated risks and benefits.

She rapidly developed mycotic aneurysmal disease both infrarenal and suprarenal which stabilised within 1\u00a0year after diagnosis and did not progress further.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Infective aortitis with mycotic aneurysms is usually treated surgically due to the significant risk of rupture in the acute period.
