  • Title: Staphylococcus saprophyticus causing native valve endocarditis.
    Author: Garduño E, Márquez I, Beteta A, Said I, Blanco J, Pineda T.
    Journal: Scand J Infect Dis; 2005; 37(9):690-1. PubMed ID: 16126572.
    Abstract:
    Coagulase negative staphylococci are a rare cause of native valve endocarditis. Staphylococcus saprophyticus is a coagulase-negative Staphylococcus infrequently reported as a human pathogen, and most of the cases reported are urinary tract infections. We describe a case of native valve endocarditis attributed to this organism. The patient needed valve replacement due to heart failure.
