This report describes the case of a patient in whom Candida albicans tricuspid valve endocarditis was treated by excision of a large vegetation and partial tricuspid valvectomy without prosthetic valve replacement. In select patients, valve-sparing debridement may allow a long-term cure and may be the procedure of choice in the treatment of Candida tricuspid valve endocarditis.
本报告描述了一例白色念珠菌性三尖瓣心内膜炎患者的病例,该患者通过切除一个大赘生物和部分三尖瓣切除术进行治疗,未进行人工瓣膜置换。在特定患者中,保留瓣膜的清创术可能会实现长期治愈,并且可能是治疗念珠菌性三尖瓣心内膜炎的首选方法。
