  • Title: [Mycotic aneurysms of the intrapulmonary arteries: unusual manifestation of right-sided endocarditis].
    Author: Godin N, Pinget L, Waldvogel F.
    Journal: Rev Fr Mal Respir; 1983; 11(6):907-13. PubMed ID: 6689449.
    Abstract:
    We report the case of a 27 year old man admitted to hospital for investigation of radiological opacities of recent origin. A diagnosis of mycotic aneurysms was made on a surgical biopsy. Although a right sided endocarditis could not be detected clinically, a trial of antibiotic therapy was instituted. However, no improvement occurred. The patient died, following a massive pulmonary haemorrhage. The necropsy revealed an active right sided endocarditis with multiple aneurysms of the intra-pulmonary arteries.
