Resumo

Mycotic aneurysm of the renal graft artery is rarely detected before its rupture. Diagnosis up to now relied on arteriography. We report on a patient whose preoperative diagnosis was made by ultrasonography. Recent progress with this noninvasive procedure should allow earlier recognition of this life-threatening complication.
