  • Title: Coxiella burneti endocarditis in a patient with positive chlamydial serology.
    Author: Wilson AP, Handler CE, Ridgway GL, Treharne J, Walker JM, Mangham DC.
    Journal: J Infect; 1992 Jul; 25 Suppl 1():111-8. PubMed ID: 1522334.
    Abstract:
    A 41-year-old man who habitually slept in a car park presented with a culture-negative endocarditis. Serological tests indicated infection with both Coxiella burneti and Chlamydia psittaci. He was treated with doxycycline and clindamycin and required aortic valve replacement. Culture of the excised value for both agents was negative but electron microscopy was suggestive of coxiella endocarditis.
