Usefulness of 18-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography in Establishing the Optimal Surgical Strategy for Prosthetic Aortic Graft Infection

Although 18F-FDG-PET/CT is useful for diagnosing PAGI, the in-hospital mortality remained high. Long-term outcomes of PAGI were acceptable.
