Aortitis, characterized by inflammatory changes in the aortic wall, can present with various manifestations. It should be considered in the differential
diagnosis of fever of unknown origin (FUO), especially in patients with aortic aneurysm. Accurate differentiation between infectious and noninfectious
aortitis is essential for appropriate treatment. Clinicians must also remain vigilant regarding the potential malignancy risk in patients
with vasculitis during initial evaluation and follow-up. This study presents a case of malignancy-associated large vessel vasculitis identified in a
patient with FUO.

Aort duvarındaki enflamatuvar değişikliklerle karakterize olan aortit, kendini çeşitli bulgularla gösterebilir. Özellikle aort anevrizması olan hastalarda,
nedeni bilinmeyen ateş (NBA) etiyolojisinde akılda tutulmalıdır. Enfeksiyöz ve enfeksiyöz olmayan aortitin ayırıcı tanısı, hastaların uygun tedavisi için
yapılmalıdır. Ayrıca, vaskülit tanısı konmuş hastalarda malignite riski konusunda klinisyenlerin farkındalığı, başlangıç değerlendirmesi ve takip için
hayati öneme sahiptir. Bu çalışmada, NBA’sı olan malignite ile ilişkili büyük damar vasküliti tanısı konmuş bir hasta sunulmuştur.
