摘要：

We report a patient with chronic Q-fever endocarditis who was treated with Bentall procedure on two occasions due to persistent endocarditis. A chronic pseudoaneurysm of the aortic root was discovered incidentally by cardiac magnetic resonance and computed tomography eight years post-operatively. Due to chronicity of the pseudoaneurysm and great risk of re-intervention, conservative management was recommended.
