Infection in the vascular tree has been proved to be one of the greatest challenges for cardiovascular surgeons. Mycotic aneurysm of the ascending aorta is unusual, life threatening pathologic entity and develops mainly after open heart procedure. We report two cases of mycotic aneurysm of the ascending aorta occurring after prosthetic replacement of the aortic valve.
