We report a case of a 66-year-old man with known ischaemic heart disease, diabetes mellitus and stage 4 kidney disease who was admitted to our tertiary centre with shortness of breath and atrial flutter. Transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) was without suspicion of endocarditis. During hospitalisation, the patient suffered a nosocomial infection in a peripheral vascular catheter caused by Staphylococcus aureus. TOE after positive blood cultures revealed a new vegetation on the pulmonary valve that resolved after antibiotic treatment.
我们报告一例66岁男性患者,患有缺血性心脏病、糖尿病和4期肾病,因呼吸急促和心房扑动入住我们的三级医疗中心。经食管超声心动图(TOE)未怀疑有感染性心内膜炎。住院期间,患者在外周血管导管发生了由金黄色葡萄球菌引起的医院感染。血培养阳性后的TOE显示肺动脉瓣有新的赘生物,抗生素治疗后消退。
