Abstract EN
We describe the case of a young HIV-positive man who presented to the emergency room in hypovolemic shock.
During subsequent evaluation, we documented a huge aortic aneurysm consistent with tertiary syphilis.
The final autopsy demonstrated the extent of cardiovascular compromise caused by this aneurysm.
