  • Title: Infectious endocarditis caused by gas-producing Escherichia coli in a diabetic dog.
    Author: Pekárková M, Lang J, Howard J.
    Journal: J Small Anim Pract; 2008 Jan; 49(1):44-6. PubMed ID: 17784928.
    Abstract:
    A 10-year-old, female West Highland white terrier was presented with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus and a previously undetected heart murmur. Emphysematous cystitis, emphysematous peritonitis and infective endocarditis of the tricuspid valve with gas accumulation were diagnosed with radiographs, including non-selective angiocardiography. The diagnoses were confirmed by post-mortem examination and positive cultures for Escherichia coli in blood, urine and tricuspid valve tissue samples.
