Clinical and echocardiographic characteristics associated with the development of infective endocarditis in patients with significant mitral stenosis

Background : Infective endocarditis (IE) confers significant mortality and morbidity in patients with underlying mitral stenosis (MS), with both diseased native valves and after valvular procedures. Purpose : We examined the clinical and echocardiographic parameters in association with the developme...

Zusammenfassung:Background : Infective endocarditis (IE) confers significant mortality and morbidity in patients with underlying mitral stenosis (MS), with both diseased native valves and after valvular procedures. Purpose : We examined the clinical and echocardiographic parameters in association with the development of IE on patients with significant MS. Methods : A total of 478 consecutive patients with index echocardiographic diagnosis of significant mitral stenosis (mitral valve area
