ИНФЕКЦИОННЫЙ ЭНДОКАРДИТ ТРАНСПЛАНТИРОВАННОГО СЕРДЦА — НОВОЕ ЛИЦО ИЗВЕСТНОЙ БОЛЕЗНИ

Abstract

The first review of endocarditis following solid organ transplantation was published in 1989. At present time infective endocarditis is a known complication of cardiac transplantation. However, published information has been limited. There are practically no materials with a description of infective endocarditis following ortotopic heart transplantation in our literature. The authors of this article describe one case caused by Staphylococcus aureus.
