Mortality in active infective endocarditis (AIE) is substantial and reinfection can strongly influence outcome. Assessment of factors influencing mortality is important. We studied 108 (33%) patients suffering from root abscess out of a total of 327 AIE patients admitted to the Deutsches Herzzentrum Berlin for surgical treatment between 1996 and 2003. Among them were 53 (25.5% of all patients) who were diagnosed as having secondary infective mitral valve disease (SMVD). Mean age was 53+/-14.2 years; there were 37 men and 16 women.
