BACKGROUND: Infection represents a less frequent cause for the development of an abdominal aortic aneurysm. The diagnosis is associated with a high risk of rapir progression and rupture. CASE REPORTS: Case 1 is a female operated on urgently for a ruptured mycotic aneurysm of the abdominal aorta. After resection of the aneurysm, we performed in situ replacement using a rifampicin-soaked vascular prosthesis. In case 2, an asymptomatic aneurysm of the right iliac artery was treated by endovascular implantation of a stent-graft. Both patients were treated with antibiotics concurrently and are still alive. DISCUSSION: The discussion deals with the up-to-date treatment modalities for mycotic aneurysms in the aorto-iliac region. The indication criteria must be adjusted individually. CONCLUSION: The prognosis of patients with a mycotic aneurysm depends particularly on an early diagnosis.

Reciprocal interactions between a tumor and its microenvironment control expansion of tumor cells. Here we show a specific type of interaction in which blasts of experimental leukemia destroy the bone marrow (BM) structures and kill stromal cells. The in vitro experiments showed that the cytotoxic agent released by leukemic cells is the fragmented DNA derived from their genome and occurring in nucleosome-like complexes. This DNA entered nuclei of BM or other cells and induced H2A.X phosphorylation at serine 139, similar to double-strand break-inducing agents. There was a correlation between large amounts of acquired DNA and death of recipient cells. Moreover, the DNA integrated into chromosomal DNA of recipient cells. Primary human acute myeloid leukemia cells also released fragmented DNA that penetrated the nuclei of other cells both in vitro and in vivo. We suggest that DNA fragments released from leukemic and also perhaps other types of tumor cells can activate DNA repair mechanisms or death in recipient cells of a tumor microenvironment, depending on the amount of the acquired DNA. This can impair DNA stability and viability of tumor stromal cells, undermine homeostatic capacity of tumor microenvironment and facilitate tumor progression.
