Abstract

Described here is the first definite case of endocarditis due to Moraxella phenylpyruvica, which occurred in a 50-year-old male with a bicuspid aortic valve. The diagnosis was delayed because of the confounding positivity of the Widal and Wright tests. The patient was cured with surgical valve replacement and antibiotic treatment.

摘要

本文描述了首例明确由苯丙酮酸莫拉菌引起的心内膜炎病例，该病例发生在一名患有二叶式主动脉瓣的50岁男性身上。由于肥达试验和瑞特试验出现混淆性阳性结果，诊断被延误。该患者通过手术瓣膜置换和抗生素治疗得以治愈。
