Expect the unexpected: endocarditis caused by Legionella feeleii.
We report a fatal case of Legionella feeleii endocarditis in a post-lung transplant patient. The diagnosis was delayed, as routine microbiological testing of nonrespiratory specimens does not account for extrapulmonary Legionella, and urine antigen testing only reliably detects Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1. This case also illustrates the utility of molecular sequencing for blood culture-negative endocarditis.
