Impact of an Endocarditis Team on prognosis: preliminary results
Anno:
2023
Infective endocarditis (IE) is a life-threatening microbial infection with high mortality rate (6–50% in-hospital and 19–82% at 5-years)1.Guidelines for management of infective endocarditis underline the importance of multidisciplinary approach with an Endocarditis Team (ET) for the complexity of disease and for prognosis which depends on patients’ characteristics, microorganisms involved…
A GIANT PSEUDOANEURYSM OF MITRAL-AORTIC INTERVALVULAR FIBROSA PRESENTING AS RECENT-ONSET ANGINA AND CARDIAC ARREST DUE TO VENTRICULAR FIBRILLATION.
Anno:
2023
A 66-year-old man was suddenly referred to the emergency department (ED) for an extra-hospital cardiac arrest due to ventricular fibrillation, promptly treated by a single DC shock. Four months prior, he had undergone aortic valve replacement with a biological valve prosthesis (BVP, Perimount Magna n. 23) for severe aortic…
LOOK BEYOND APPEARANCES:NOT ONLY A SIMPLE AORTIC ENDOCARDITIS
Anno:
2023
Infective endocarditis (IE) refers to the colonization of cardiac valve endocardium by virulent microorganisms. It is the fourth leading cause of life-threatening infectious disease syndrome, if not efficiently diagnosed and treated. The three most common causes of IE on native valves (from the most to the least frequent) are Staphylococci,…
Late-onset post-infective aortic pseudo-aneurysm after bioprostethic aortic valve replacement
Anno:
2023
A 74 year-old man was admitted three months after SAVR symptomatic for dyspnea. Past medical history: DM type 2, PAD and recent SAVR after diagnosis of severe aortic stenosis, complicated by Stafilococcus Epidermidis blood culture sternal wound dehiscence, requiring Robicsek technique treatment and long-term parenteral antibiotics. He was finally discharged to our cardiac rehab…
MITRAL VALVE REPAIR FOR INFECTIVE ENDOCARDITIS LONG TERM RESULTS
Anno:
2023
Background and Aim. The clinical benefits of mitral valve repair over replacement in the setting of mitral infective endocarditis remain not clearly established. We aim to review the clinical experience in mitral valve surgery for infective endocarditis looking at mid-term survival. Methods. Prospectively collected data of patients who underwent…

RUOLO DELL'ECOCARDIOGRAFIA TRIDIMENSIONALE NELLA DIAGNOSTICA PER IMMAGINI E NELLA PIANIFICAZIONE DELLA CHIRURGIA DI UNA FISTOLA AORTA ATRIO SINISTRO
Anno:
2022
Una donna di 63 anni, affetta da diabete, ipertensione arteriosa, dislipidemia e nefropatia cronica, alcune settimane dopo la sostituzione valvolare mitralica per insufficienza valvolare, venne ricoverata per sonnolenza, gonfiore addominale e febbre. Gli esami di laboratorio rivelarono emoculture positive per Staphylococcus aureus ed elevati indici di infiammazione ed una…
