    Abstract:
    Staphylococcus aureus is an important and prevalent cause of both uncomplicated bacteremia, as well as endocarditis. This article addresses the following controversial strategies: diagnosis of endocarditis in staphylococcemic populations; optimal treatment strategies for right-sided and left-sided S. aureus endocarditis; use of echocardiography in S. aureus endocarditis; and therapy options for catheter-associated staphylococcemias.
