Abstract
Bartonella quintana, known to cause various clinical symptoms, is increasingly recognized as one important cause of culture-negative endocarditis. We report a case of infectious endocarditis with B. quintana on the prosthetic valve, accompanied by proteinase 3-antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-positive collagen vascular disease-like symptoms 1 year earlier.
摘要
巴尔通体(Bartonella quintana)，已知可引起多种临床症状，正日益被认为是造成培养阴性心内膜炎的一个重要原因。我们报告了 1 例感染性心内膜炎病例，心内膜炎由带瓣人造血管上的巴尔通体引起，1 年前曾伴蛋白酶 3-抗中性粒细胞胞质抗体阳性的类似胶原血管病样症状。
