pubmed:abstractText
We report on a newborn with severe congestive heart failure where echocardiography was leading to the correct diagnosis and the treatment. Endocarditis in the newborn is a rare disease, and the diagnosis is possible from the echocardiographic demonstration of vegetations. It is therefore important to search for vegetations in the very ill newborn with cardiac symptoms, in order to start early antibiotic treatment independently of positive cultures and to avoid the usual fatal outcome of this disease.
