Native tricuspid valve endocarditis is quite rare without any predisposing factors and poses a diagnostic challenge because of fewer cardiac symptoms and lesser peripheral manifestations. This is a case report of a 25-year-old female who presented with high-grade fever, dry cough, decreased appetite, and weight loss for 1 month with no history of intravenous drug use or evidence of underlying cardiac abnormality and was diagnosed with native tricuspid valve endocarditis.
无任何诱发因素的原发性三尖瓣心内膜炎较为罕见,由于心脏症状较少和外周表现较少,诊断具有挑战性。这是一例 25 岁女性的病例报告,她因高热、干咳、食欲不振和体重减轻而就诊,病程 1 个月,无静脉吸毒史,也无潜在心脏异常的证据,最终诊断为原发性三尖瓣心内膜炎。
