This is the first reported case of native valve endocarditis caused by Engyodontium album. This fungus, rarely seen as a human pathogen, is separated from Tritirachium species by its lack of pigmentation and from Beauveria species by the presence of conidiogenous cells in whorls.
这是首例由白地霉引起的自体瓣膜心内膜炎的报道病例。这种真菌作为人类病原体很少见,因其缺乏色素沉着而与单端孢霉属菌种区分开来,又因轮生产孢细胞的存在而与白僵菌属菌种区分开来。
