Late infective endocarditis of an Amplatzer atrial septal device twelve years after implantation

Abstract: Infekčná endokarditída bola prvotne defi novaná ako ochorenie pacientov s chlopňovými abnormalitami. V súčasnej dobe sú najrizikovejšou lokalitou vzniku infekčnej endokarditídy chlopňové protézy a iné implantované cudzorodé materiály. Kazuistika prezentuje prípad osemnásť ročnej pacientky s anamnézou podstúpenia implantácie Amplatzerovho okluzora pred dvanástimi rokmi. Echokardiografi cké vyšetrenie poukázalo na prítomnosť endokarditídy v pravej predsieni srdca s komunikáciou do ľavej predsiene a poškodenie ne… Show more

Rostagno et al also present only one recurrence of IE after MVr -in an intravenous drug-user 11 months after surgery.…”

“…6 Some older studies preferred using a biological protheses in the fi eld of IE. 2,11 However, in the American College of Cardiology and American Heart Association guidelines (2014) and in the European Society of Cardiology guidelines for IE management (2015) there is no strict defi nition of a prothesis type preference. 19,20 Tao et al published a metanalysis focused on the choice of a valve in the fi eld of IE.…”
