In a patient with SBE in three differents ocassions in a period approximately of 9 months, the mitral valve was replaced on two occasions. The echocardiogram detected vegetations on two ocassions. The diagnosis of vegetation at the level of the mitral valve, was done for the first time in our hospital by this method. During the last admission, the echocardiogram suggested a vegetation at the level of the artificial mitral valve, projecting into the left atrium with the systole. This was confirmed by surgery.
在一名患有亚急性细菌性心内膜炎（SBE）的患者身上，在大约9个月的时间里出现了三次不同情况，二尖瓣有两次被置换。超声心动图在两次检查中检测到赘生物。通过这种方法，二尖瓣水平赘生物的诊断在我们医院首次完成。在最后一次入院期间，超声心动图显示人工二尖瓣水平有一个赘生物，在收缩期突入左心房。手术证实了这一点。
