Abstract

We present a case report of a 15-year-old girl with right-side endocarditis, which presented with multiple large masses located on both right chambers mimicking the appearance of a tumor. There were no predisposing factors other than an infected navel piercing. Piercing-associated infective endocarditis has occasionally been reported, and usually occurs in patients with an underlying cardiac condition. We briefly discuss the main features of piercing-related endocarditis and also some aspects of cardiac tumors as differential diagnosis of large cardiac masses.

摘要

我们报告一例15岁右侧心内膜炎女孩的病例，其右心腔出现多个大肿块，形似肿瘤。除了脐部穿刺感染外，没有其他诱发因素。穿刺相关感染性心内膜炎偶尔有报道，通常发生在有潜在心脏疾病的患者中。我们简要讨论了穿刺相关性心内膜炎的主要特征以及心脏肿瘤作为心脏大肿块鉴别诊断的一些方面。
