BURGOS, Lucrecia M et al. Endocarditis infecciosa por bacilos gram negativos no HACEK. Experiencia en un centro de alta complejidad de la República Argentina (1998-2016). Rev. argent. microbiol. [online]. 2019, vol.51, n.2, pp.136-139. ISSN 0325-7541.  http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ram.2018.03.006.

Non-HACEK Gram-negative bacilli are a rare cause of infective endocarditis. Epidemiological, diagnostic and prognostic aspects of this entity are little known, and there is limited experience. The aim of this study was to analyze the clinical, microbiological and in-hospital outcomes of non-HACEK Gram negative bacilli endocarditis and to compare them with those due to other microorganisms.

Keywords : Infective endocarditis; Gram negative bacilli; Native valve; Intracardiac devices.
