Aortic pseudoaneurysms are one of the most important complications to be encountered in cardiac surgery. Recently, the aortic pseudoaneurysms have been diagnosed by contrast enhanced computerized tomography. It has high specificity and sensitivity rates. Late postoperative sternal abscesses are rarely seen after open heart surgery. Thorax computerized tomography scan revealed abscess extending from subcutaneous tissue to the medullar component of sternum, overlying retrosternal giant aortic pseudoaneurysms.
