Abstract

We present a case of infective endocarditis due to Aspergillus Flavus in a 61 years old man with calcific valvular stenosis. This is the first case of Aspergillus endocarditis in absence of overt clinical manifestations and lack of predisposing factors. Patient recovered after cardiac surgery and amphotericin therapy.

61 yaşında kalsifiye kapak darlığı olan hastada infektif endokardit tesbit edilmiş ve post operatif kapak materyalinde Aspergillus Flavus üremiştir. Predispozan faktörleri ve belirgin spesifik klinik bulguları olmayan literatürdeki ilk Aspergillus endokarditidir.Hasta kardiyak cerrahi ve amphotericin tedavisini takiben iyileşmiştir.
