- W4210342760 abstract "Cardiac surgery is necessary in almost 50% of patients with endocarditis. Early surgery, i.e., the surgery performed during the first hospitalization, is required in the following cases: heart failure secondary to valve regurgitation; S. aureus, fungal organism, or other highly resistant organism infection; heart block, annular or aortic abscess, or destructive penetrating lesions; evidence of persistent infection as manifested by persistent bacteremia or fevers lasting >5 days after onset of appropriate antimicrobial therapy. A 62-year-old man developed a fever (38 °C) 3 days after a transaortic electrophysiological study; blood cultures were positive for S. aureus, and were sensitive to vancomycin and ceftaroline. Antibiotic therapy was started, controlling the fever and the patient's infective and inflammatory profiles well; however, 3 days later, acute aortic regurgitation developed. At transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), a rare condition was revealed-vegetation was attached to the aortic wall, impeding correct aortic valve closure. Cardiac operation was carried out and the time for surgery was discussed; based on the patient's clinically stable condition, and on the infection, which was controlled well by antibiotics therapy, surgery was not performed in emergency circumstance (within 24-48 h)-rather, it was programmed during the hospitalization. A TEE surveillance was initiated, and after 7 days, TEE revealed a new picture, with images of an aortic abscess with small perforation in the right atrium, requiring emergency surgery, carried out 20 h later. In our case, the rapid evolution of the vegetation attached to the aortic wall suggested the following: (1) that the time for the surgery cannot be guided only by clinical procedure but must also be guided by imaging pictures; (2) that strictly TEE surveillance is mandatory in patients with aortic endocarditis not initially referred for emergency surgery." @default.
