Abstract

A 6-year-old boy with a history of infective endocarditis (IE) presented with recurrent disease manifesting as left hip arthritis and severe mitral regurgitation. He developed a rare complication - a left atrial pseudoaneurysm. Despite the absence of classic fever and systemic symptoms, imaging revealed the recurrence and guided surgical repair. This case highlights the complexities of recurrent IE in children and underscores the importance of high clinical suspicion and imaging modalities like echocardiography for diagnosis and management.

小儿专利的复发性二尖瓣反流和左心房动脉瘤:一个复杂的感染性心内膜炎病例。
一名曾患感染性心内膜炎(IE)的 6 岁男孩病情反复发作,表现为左髋关节炎和严重的二尖瓣返流。他出现了一种罕见的并发症--左心房假性动脉瘤。尽管没有典型的发热和全身症状,但影像学检查发现了复发,并指导进行了手术修复。该病例凸显了儿童复发性 IE 的复杂性,强调了临床高度怀疑和超声心动图等影像学检查对诊断和治疗的重要性。
