Candidal endocarditis can develop if candidemia occurs during Swan-Ganz catheterization. Candida endocarditis may persist for many months and is fatal unless the infected valve is resected. Herein is reported the first case of rupture of a mycotic pulmonary artery aneurysm caused by chronic candidal endocarditis. The endocarditis followed Swan-Ganz catheterization and aneurysm progressed despite appropriate medical and surgical therapy.
如果在插入 Swan-Ganz 导管期间发生念珠菌血症，就可能发展为念珠菌性心内膜炎。念珠菌性心内膜炎可能持续数月，除非切除受感染的瓣膜，否则会致命。本文报道了首例由慢性念珠菌性心内膜炎引起的霉菌性肺动脉瘤破裂病例。心内膜炎发生在 Swan-Ganz 导管插入术后，尽管采取了适当的内科和外科治疗，动脉瘤仍在进展。
