is an enteric microorganism that, if introduced into the vasculature, is an uncommon cause of infective endocarditis. Timely diagnosis, appropriate treatment measures, and close follow-up are key to therapeutic success. Antibiotic therapy is the mainstay of therapy, and surgical intervention is sometimes indicated. Here we present a novel case of a 45-year-old transgender male with Factor V Leiden deficiency who was found to have mitral valve endocarditis due to the postoperative complications of colovesical fistula formation leading to extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) urinary tract infection (UTI) and bacteremia in the setting of recent phalloplasty, mastectomy, and vaginal eversion.
是一种肠道微生物,如果进入血管系统,是感染性心内膜炎的罕见病因。及时诊断、采取适当的治疗措施以及密切随访是治疗成功的关键。抗生素治疗是主要的治疗方法,有时需要进行手术干预。在此,我们报告一例新型病例,一名45岁的变性男性,患有因子V莱顿缺乏症,因结肠膀胱瘘形成的术后并发症导致超广谱β-内酰胺酶(ESBL)尿路感染(UTI)和菌血症,在近期阴茎成形术、乳房切除术和阴道外翻的情况下发生二尖瓣心内膜炎。
