We report the case of a previously healthy adolescent who presented with chest pain and fever and who developed a mycotic aneurysm of the aorta after contracting community-acquired, methicillin-resistant <jats:italic>Staphylococcus aureus<\/jats:italic>. Early recognition of widening of the patient's superior mediastinum, noted during a comparison of the patient's initial and follow-up chest radiographs, prompted computed tomographic angiography of the chest and led to a timely diagnosis, rapid surgical intervention, and a good clinical outcome. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of mycotic aortic aneurysm from community-acquired methicillin-resistant <jats:italic>S. aureus<\/jats:italic> in a healthy adolescent who had no predisposing cardiac or aortic anomalies.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.14503\/thij-16-5932","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,8,30]],"date-time":"2017-08-30T14:18:16Z","timestamp":1504102696000},"page":"279-282","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Healthy Adolescent with a Mycotic Aortic Aneurysm from Community-Acquired Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus"],"prefix":"10.14503","volume":"44","author":[{"given":"Durga P.","family":"Naidu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jose A.","family":"Quinones","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kenneth W.","family":"Lutschg","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Duraisamy","family":"Balaguru","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"5628","reference":[{"issue":"8","key":"i1526-6702-44-4-279-b1","series-title":"J Pediatr Surg","first-page":"1054","article-title":"Mycotic thromboaneurysmal disease of the abdominal aorta in preterm infants: its natural history and its management","volume":"27","year":"1992","unstructured":"Lobe\n              TE\n            , RichardsonCJ, BouldenTF, SwischukLE, HaydenCK, OldhamKT.\n          Mycotic thromboaneurysmal disease of the abdominal aorta in preterm infants: its natural history and its management.
