Infectious Endocarditis due to <i>Yersinia enterocolitica</i>
View through CrossRef
<i>Yersinia enterocolitica</i> is a gram-negative coccobacillus. <i>Y. enterocolitica</i> infection is acquired by humans via the oral route. Infection due to <i>Y. enterocolitica</i> was first observed in 1933 in New York. <i>Y. enterocolitica</i> septicemia has been increasingly recognized in recent years, whereas endocarditis due to <i>Y. enterocolitica</i> is a rare manifestation. We herein describe a patient who developed <i>Y. enterocolitica</i> endocarditis and was successfully treated with a combination of drugs consisting of a quinolone (ofloxacin) and an aminoglycoside (netilmicin).
