Abstract EN
The awareness of Listeria monocytogenes as a pathogen in meningitis and bacteremia in immunosuppressed patients is high.
We report a case of vascular graft infection due to Listeria monocytogenes as an example of a less well-known manifestation of listeriosis and focus on the possible treatment procedures emphasizing a management with surgical debridement but preservation of the endograft, in contrast to the gold standard treatment of vascular graft infections which consists of a removal of the graft.
