Abstract EN

Simultaneous tricuspid and aortic valve endocarditis can occur, although rarely, in patients without any predisposing factors for endocarditis and without the presence of an aortic sinus rupture, most probably via the presence of bacteremia for a prolonged period, like the patient presented in this case report who had suffered from a recurrent fever for several weeks which had not been investigated nor treated till the person was admitted to the hospital with both pulmonary and systemic septic emboli.

Abstract FRE

L’endocardite simultanée des valves aortique et tricuspide peut se produire, bien que rarement, chez des patients sans aucun facteur prédisposant d’endocardite et sans la présence d’une rupture du sinus aortique, résultant très probablement d’une bactériémie prolongée, comme ce fut le cas chez la patiente présentée dans cet article qui a souffert d’une fièvre récurrente pendant plusieurs semaines et qui n’a pas été investiguée ni traitée jusqu’à l’hospitalisation de la patiente pour embolies septiques pulmonaire et systémique
