A Case Series and Review of Bacillus Cereus Endocarditis from India.
Introduction: Bacillus cereus is a gram positive bacilli found commonly in the soil and environment. It is a bacteria rarely associated with endocarditis.
Case history: Intravenous drug abuse, presence of valvular defects, pacemakers, immunodeficiency are some of the known risk factors for B.cereus endocarditis. We present here a case series of two patients with B.cereus endocarditis along with a review of the literature.
Conclusion: This is the first report of B.cereus endocarditis from India to the best of our knowledge.
