(2013). Acute aortic valve rupture from infective endocarditis after transrectal prostate biopsy: a call to revise the AHA guidelines for prevention of infective endocarditis. Clinical Medicine Insights: Case Reports, 6 , 29–33. : 10.4137/CCRep.S10503 . Erratum in: Clin Med ...
Infective Endocarditis Both the AHA/ACC and ESC released updated guidelines for the management of infective endocarditis (IE) in 2015. Major recommendations for the management of IE are summarized below. [46, 47] : Class I The Modified Duke Criteria should be used in evaluating a patient with ...
Sometimes this leads to heart failure, and a surgeon must replace the aortic valve. Aortic regurgitation can be caused by: Rheumatic fever Very high blood pressure A bicuspid aortic valve, which has two cusps (flaps) instead of three Endocarditis — inflammation of the lining of the heart A...

Objective:To determine the long-term survival and rate of reoperation after surgical treatment of infective endocarditis (IE) in patients with a bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and patients with a tricuspid aortic valve (TAV). Methods:Between 1997 and 2017, 210 patients underwent surgical treatment fo...
Backgrounds Transcatheter-implanted aortic valve infective endocarditis (TAVI-IE) is difficult to diagnose when relying on the Duke Criteria. Our aim was to assess the additional diagnostic value of F-fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG) positron emission/computed tomography (PET/CT) and cardiac computed tomograp...
The clinical features of endocarditis of the aortic valve in 24 dogs were reviewed. This condition was found most commonly in large-breed, middle-aged male dogs. Evidence of antecedent infection or immunosuppression was usually not historically verified or found at necropsy. However, an association ...
Transesophageal echocardiography revealed aortic valve endocarditis with 12 × 16mm vegetation on the left coronary sinus causing severe aortic insufficiency (Fig. 1). Surgical findings were mobile vegetation on the left coronary leaflet with a noncoronary leaflet perforation, as well as the stent ...
Conclusions:In patients with native valve endocarditis, a BAV was associated with improved survival after surgical treatment. In patients with prosthetic valve endocarditis, survival was not affected by the original valve morphology of the patient. ...
