We report the endovascular treatment of two patients presenting with aortoduodenal fistulae. The first patient was a 66-year-old man admitted with hematemesis. He was on clopidogrel and had received a cryopreserved aortic graft for a mycotic abdominal aortic aneurysm five years earlier. Computed tomography (CT) showed aortic pseudoaneurysms in close contact with the duodenum. Endovascular repair was carried out. Twenty-seven months after the procedure the patient remains asymptomatic. The second patient was a 78-year-old man admitted with abdominal pain and nausea. CT revealed an abdominal aortic pseudoaneurysm and aortoduodenal fistula. He suffered from severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease that greatly increased his surgical morbidity and mortality. An endovascular repair was performed under epidural anesthesia. The patient died of a postoperative pneumonia 38 days after surgery. These two cases illustrate the importance of endovascular aortic repair especially when an open surgical procedure is either difficult or impossible.

Tuberculous pseudoaneurysm of the aorta is rare and exposes patients to a very high risk of unpredictable rupture. To our best knowledge, only 32 cases have been reported related to all arterial systems from 1993 to 2013 in the literature. We report a 44-year-old male who presented with an aortic pseudoaneurysm and tuberculosis of the kidney and vertebrae. He underwent endovascular repair and antibiotic therapy for tuberculosis, combined with a bare stent implanted to seal endoleaks after endograft stenting. The postoperative course was uneventful and the patient recovered and lived well afterwards. Epidemiology, pathogenesis, presentation, management, and mortality of this entity were reviewed and discussed.
