Noninfectious aortitis : A case report
INTRODUCTION: Noninfectious aortitis has been increasingly reported worldwide with a growing prevalence in western medicine. Attributed to our increasingly diverse population, western surgeons must be vigilant to promptly differentiate these cases from its more common infectious counterpart in order to ensure subsequent appropriate management of these patients.
METHODS: We present a case report of a 71-year-old Indo-Caribbean male who presented with nonspecific abdominal and back pain, found to have aortitis of a noninfectious etiology.Results and conclusion: While our patient's process was ultimately managed without surgical intervention, the varied clinical presentation along with the lack of specific laboratory markers pose a challenge for surgeons to appropriately diagnose and manage aortitis. Appropriate diagnostic imaging, the utilization of a multidisciplinary team, and close patient monitoring are key components for effective management of this increasingly prevalent disease process.
