Multivalvular Endocarditis With Granulicatella adiacens in a 2-Year-Old Boy With Ventricular Septal Defect

A 2-year-old boy with a hemodynamically insignificant ventricular septal defect was found to have polyvalvular endocarditis, eventually requiring replacement of the pulmonary and mitral valves with a pulmonary conduit and a mechanical valve. Cultures grew <i>Granulicatella adiacens</i>, listed on the microbiological criterion of the updated Duke International Society for Cardiovascular Infectious Diseases criteria.

Abstract

A 2-year-old boy with a hemodynamically insignificant ventricular septal defect was found to have polyvalvular endocarditis, eventually requiring replacement of the pulmonary and mitral valves with a pulmonary conduit and a mechanical valve. Cultures grew <i>Granulicatella adiacens</i>, listed on the microbiological criterion of the updated Duke International Society for Cardiovascular Infectious Diseases criteria.
