  • Title: Listeria monocytogenes endocarditis.
    Author: Sheinman BD, Evans T, Sage R.
    Journal: Postgrad Med J; 1985 Jan; 61(711):51-2. PubMed ID: 3991406.
    Abstract:
    A fatal case of endocarditis due to Listeria monocytogenes is reported. Case reports of endocarditis due to this organism are rare but indicate a higher mortality than with many other causes of bacterial endocarditis. The size of the problem may be underestimated because the organism has a "diphtheroid' appearance and may be incorrectly dismissed as a contaminant.
