A Case of <i>Corynebacterium diphtheriae</i> Native Mitral and Tricuspid Valve Infective Endocarditis Complicated by Shower Emboli. [PDF]
Case Rep CardiolInfective endocarditis is a rare phenomenon that may have devastating consequences. While uncommon, the spectrum of causative organisms can include Corynebacterium species. Corynebacterium diphtheriae endocarditis bears a high potential for systemic complications and overall mortality. We present a case of mitral and tricuspid native valve endocarditis
