Candida tropicalis infectious endocarditis in a dog with a patent ductus arteriosus
A 6-month-old male intact miniature Australian Shepherd presented for surgical consultation for a previously diagnosed patent ductus arteriosus. Echocardiogram revealed a patent ductus arteriosus and a hyperechoic oscillating lesion within the main pulmonary artery. Blood cultures and eventual post-mortem examination revealed Candida tropicalis endocarditis. This case report highlights a rare case of fungal endocarditis with both echocardiographic and post-mortem findings.
