초록

S. lugdunensis 감염성 심내막염은 국내에서 거의 보고가 없었고, 매우 드물지만 심한 합병증 및 높은 사망률을 보이는 질환이다. 저자들은 항생제 및 수술적 치료로 완치된 자연 판막에서 발생한 S. lugdunensis 감염성 심내막염 1예를 경험하였기에 이를 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

A 37-year-old woman presented to our hospital with a 1-month history of fever. She also complained of lower leg pain. Transthoracic echocardiography showed large vegetations on the mitral valve leaflets. Staphylococcus lugdunensis was isolated from blood cultures. She was diagnosed with infectious endocarditis due to S. lugdunensis and was treated with antibiotics and surgery. Infective endocarditis caused by S. lugdunensis can be invasive and often resembles endocarditis due to Staphylococcus aureus. Thus, whenever this organism is found in patients with endocarditis, early surgical treatment of the infected valve should be considered.
