“…Among the 28 patients for whom data enabled the diagnosis of T. whipplei endocarditis; 16 have been previously reported or cited ( 2 , 5 , 18 , 19 ). According to current modified Duke criteria ( 20 ) before the examination of heart valve specimens, only 1 (3.6%) patient met the criteria for endocarditis and 17 (60.7%) met the criteria for possible endocarditis ( Technical Appendix Table 1 )…”

Whipplei from rebiopsy of vertebral specimen [ 25 ] Lagier J-C et al Medicine 2010 113 5 of 16 patients with endocarditis as initial symptoms had immunosuppressive treatment Corticosteroids 50 (43 %) TNF-a antagonists 16 (14 %) Others 16 (14 %) Previous immuno suppressive Treatment 56 (50 %) 32 patients (28 %) experienced aggravation of various symptoms after immunosuppressive therapy Patients with inflammatory rheumatoid disease who experience severe general involvment should be screened for T. Whippelii or the therapy is inneffective against polyarthritis [ 26 ] Hoppe E. et al Joint bone Spine 2010 5 RA(2), AS(2), SA(1) TNF a antagonists Failure to control the disease and other symptoms Biological therapy probably worsened pre existing whipples disease [ 27 ] Vancsa A et al Joint Bone Spine 2010 1 Seronegative Oligoarthritis Eternecept Endocarditis DMARDs resistant arthritis should prompt thourough search T.whippelii prior to initiation of TNF-a antagonists [ 28 ] Hmamouci I et al J.
