Infective Endocarditis Caused By Streptococcus pluranimalium: A Case Report

Infective endocarditis (IE) refers to an infection of the endocardium that can be caused by bacteria, viruses, or fungi. It can manifest either acutely or sub-acutely.

description Infective endocarditis (IE) refers to an infection of the endocardium that can be caused by bacteria, viruses, or fungi. It can manifest either acutely or sub-acutely. Which can be complicated to stroke and congestive heart failure. We report a case of IE caused by Streptococcus (S.) pluranimalium. It is a rare organism that was discovered in 1999 in infections affecting domestic animals. It can cause serious complications, such as brain abscesses, and IE in both humans and animals. Our patient was diagnosed with IE caused by S. pluranimalium based on modified Duke's criteria. After the diagnosis was made, the patient started on intravenous antibiotics according to the blood cultures. Then, the patient significantly improved. We are reporting this case because only a few cases were documented for infective endocarditis caused by S. pluranimalium.
