Mycobacterium tuberculosis can involve any organ of the body, including the arteries. Usually the mycobacteria infects the arterial wall spreading from a contiguous foci. We report a case of tuberculous pseudoaneurysm involving the iliac artery clinically manifested as fever of unknown origin. The diagnosis relied on abdominal CT-scanning. Tuberculous etiology was confirmed postoperatively by microbiologic and microscopic study. The antituberculous therapy was early started, but the patient died three months later as a consequence of a non-infectious abdominal aortic rupture. Clinicians should consider tuberculous etiology when the diagnosis of mycotic pseudoaneurysm is being entertained.
