A case of bacterial endocarditis in a newborn without any congenital heart disease is reported. The clinical diagnosis was suspected on evolutive heart failure by mitral dysfunction with sepsis. T.M. mode echocardiography could detect only the valvular defects. Correlations between anatomic and echocardiographic findings allowed to discuss the limits of the method. Neonatal bacterial endocarditis is a rare event. Its diagnosis is difficult and its prognosis very poor. This affection must be prevented.
报告了一例无任何先天性心脏病的新生儿细菌性心内膜炎病例。临床诊断基于二尖瓣功能障碍合并败血症导致的进行性心力衰竭而怀疑。二维超声心动图仅能检测到瓣膜缺损。解剖学和超声心动图检查结果之间的相关性有助于探讨该方法的局限性。新生儿细菌性心内膜炎是一种罕见的病症。其诊断困难，预后很差。必须预防这种疾病。
