Diagnosis of aortic graft infection.
Publication/Presentation Date

Abstract
A technique using the "skinny" needle to diagnose aortic graft infection is described. The technique is similar to the standard translumbar technique, except that the needle is directed caudally. Both radiologic and bacterial diagnosis can be made using this technique, and puncture of the graft appears to be without significant consequence.
