Gram-negative bacterial endocarditis causes 5% of all bacterial endocarditis. Among gram-negative bacteria, Klebsiella species are rare causes of native valve endocarditis. Klebsiella oxytoca is an extremely rare subspecies that can infrequently cause endocarditis and is associated with poor outcome. We report a case of Klebsiella oxytoca endocarditis in an elderly man who initially presented w...
background/objective: the aim of the present preliminary study was to assess the demographic, clinical, paraclinical, microbiological, echocardiographic, and therapeutic profile as well as in-hospital outcome of patients with infective endocarditis at a referral center for various infectious diseases in iran.methods: required demographic, clinical, plausible complications and paraclinical data ...
This study investigated the possible relationship between endocarditis and overall and individual cancer risk among study participants in Taiwan.We used data from the National Health Insurance program of Taiwan to conduct a population-based, observational, and retrospective cohort study. The case group consisted of 14,534 patients who were diagnosed with endocarditis between January 1, 2000 and...
infective endocarditis is a serious complication of intravenous (iv) drug abuse, with a reported mortality of 5 to 10%. a 21-year-old man, who was an intravenous drug abuser, presented with fever and dyspnea. transthoracic echocardiography showed a highly mobile, large vegetation on the anterior leaflet of the tricuspid valve. despite antibiotic therapy for ten days, the patient remained febril...
serratia marcescens (s.m) is a species of gram–negative bacteria in the family enterobacteriaceae. a human pathogen, s. marcescens is involved in nosocomial infections, particularly in urinary tract and wound infections. this report describes a 63 years-old man that referred to hospital with dyspnea fc iv and he underwent cardiac valves replacement surgery with a diagnosis of severe mitral sten...
Right-sided endocarditis has increased in frequency since the 1970's, and it accounted for 14% of total infective endocarditis (Robbins et al, 1986) and 54% of drug addicts who developed endocarditis (Tuazon and Sheagren, 1974). Staphylococcus aureus is the most common pathogen, which is in contrast to the streptococcal association in left-sided endocarditis (Osler, 1885). Polymicrobial infecti...
Our objectives were to determine the incidence of endocarditis in patients whose Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia was community-acquired, related to hemodialysis, or hospital-acquired; to assess clinical factors that would reliably distinguished between S. aureus bacteremia and S. aureus endocarditis; to assess the emergence of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) as a cause of endocarditis; ...
BACKGROUND Right-sided endocarditis occurs predominantly in intravenous drug users, in patients with pacemaker or central venous lines and in patients with congenital heart disease. The vast majority of cases involve the tricuspid valve. Eustachian valve endocarditis is an uncommon disease with similar signs and symptoms of the tricuspid valve endocarditis. A series of only 16 cases of eustachi...
in this paper, we present a case of bacterial endocarditis of the prosthetic pulmonary conduit found in a 26-year-old man. an echocardiography study around the pulmonary valve showed the presence of a floating mass attached to the wall of the conduit. this formation was thought to be a floating calcific leaflet of the conduit or a developed vegetation of the conduit. due to the uncertainty of t...
Endocarditis is a disease characterized by inflammation or infection of the inner surface of the heart (the endocardium). This article will focus on endocarditis that is the result of infection (infective endocarditis). Endocarditis commonly affects heart valves, but may also involve nonvalvular areas or mechanical devices that are implanted in the heart, such as artificial heart valves, pacema...
