  • Title: Atypical presentation of infective endocarditis.
    Author: Arunachalam K.
    Journal: R I Med J (2013); 2016 Jul 01; 99(7):24-6. PubMed ID: 27379355.
    Abstract:
    The HACEK group of organisms are one of the infrequent causes of infective endocarditis. Infective endocarditis should be recognized and treated promptly to prevent excessive morbidity and mortality associated with the disease. Sometimes the diagnosis is delayed due to vague and subtle presentation. Through this case report, risk factors of Cardiobacterium hominis endocarditis and its atypical presentation is illustrated to increase the recognition of infective endocarditis as one of the differential diagnosis.
