  • Title: Propionibacterium acnes endocarditis on an annuloplasty ring in an adolescent boy.
    Author: Vanagt WY, Daenen WJ, Delhaas T.
    Journal: Heart; 2004 Sep; 90(9):e56. PubMed ID: 15310725.
    Abstract:
    Propionibacterium acnes, a constituent of the human cutaneous flora, infected both the native mitral valve and a Carpentier mitral annuloplasty ring in an adolescent patient. In the case of culture negative endocarditis, the incubation period of blood cultures should be prolonged to identify this pathogen.
