Abstract

We describe a case of a 67-year-old man with bioprosthetic aortic valve endocarditis secondary to Rhizobium radiobacter, a rare Gram-negative plant pathogen. The initial source was assumed to be due to soil exposure. The patient was successfully managed with ceftriaxone following aortic valve replacement. Upon review of the literature, failure to recover R. radiobacter from blood cultures occurred in 57% (4/7) of reported endocarditis cases and 86% (6/7) were managed with antimicrobial monotherapy. Notably, all the published case reports to date of R. radiobacter endocarditis have reported survival following treatment.

放射根瘤菌假瓣膜心内膜炎1例报告及文献分析。
我们描述了一例67岁的男子生物假体主动脉瓣心内膜炎继发于放射根瘤菌,一种罕见的革兰氏阴性植物病原体。最初的来源被认为是由于土壤暴露。患者在主动脉瓣置换术后成功使用头孢曲松治疗。根据文献回顾,57%(4/7)的报告心内膜炎病例的血培养中未能恢复放射杆菌,86%(6/7)的病例采用抗菌药物单药治疗。值得注意的是,迄今为止所有已发表的放射杆菌心内膜炎病例报告均报告了治疗后的生存率。
