Abstract

A healthy 54 year old man was investigated for haematuria. In spite of a proven urinary tract infection a cystoscopy was carried out with no antibiotic therapy. As a result he developed systemic infection leading to two independent, and potentially fatal, complications: vertebral osteomyelitis and a mycotic false aneurysm.
