    Abstract:
    Propionibacterium acnes endocarditis is an uncommon infection in pediatrics. We describe a case of P. acnes endocarditis in a 16-year-old boy that occurred 6 months after recurrent surgery for a congenital cardiopathy. Molecular identification of P. acnes was obtained. He recovered from this infection after a surgical treatment and with a prolonged antibiotic regimen including ceftriaxone.
