Endocardite a Streptococcus agalactiae

Abstract

Resumo: A endocardite a Streptococcus agalactiae é uma entidade clínica rara. A sua apresentação clínica geralmente tem início agudo, com presença de vegetações de grandes dimensões, rápida destruição valvular e complicações frequentes, nomeadamente embolização. A mortalidade permanece elevada quando é apenas adotada terapêutica médica. Os autores apresentam um caso clínico de uma doente jovem com endocardite a Streptococcus agalactiae tratada com uma estratégia cirúrgica precoce e fazem uma revisão da literatura considerada pertinente.
