OBJECTIVE: To analyze the surgical treatment and outcomes of isolated right-sided infective endocarditis.
METHODS: From January 1994 to February 2009, 28 patients with isolated right-sided infective endocarditis underwent operation whose clinical data was retrospectively reviewed. There were 18 male and 10 female, age ranged from 10 to 72 years with a mean of 38 years. All of the patients presented intermittent fever, 14 patients presented heart failure (NYHA class III or IV), 25 patients had a history of pulmonary embolism or pneumonia, 18 patients had positive culture; 27 patients had intra-cardiac vegetations confirmed by echocardiogram. All the operations were performed under cardiopulmonary bypass. Antibiotic therapy continued for another 2 to 3 weeks after surgery.
RESULTS: One patient had underwent re-operation due to mediastinal bleeding, 2 patients needed mechanical ventilation for more than 1 week after surgery, renal dysfunction occurred in 3 patients. After surgery, 11 patients presented with mild or moderate tricuspid regurgitation before discharge. One patient (3.6%) died in hospital after surgery due to severe infection and multi-organ failure, the other 27 patients were cured and discharged. Patients were followed up for 6 months to 15 years.NYHA class decreased in all patients, and the symptoms of heart failure improved significantly after surgery. No recurrent case was found.
CONCLUSIONS: Surgery is an effective treatment for isolated right-sided infective endocarditis with congenital heart disease or right heart implants. Good outcomes are observed in these settings.
