RESUMEN
La endocarditis infecciosa, una infección seria del endocarditis, y particularmente de las válvulas cardíacas, esta asociada con un alto grado de enfermedad y muerte. Generalmente ocurre en pacientes con arquitectura cardiaca alterada y anormal, en combinación con la exposición a bacterias debida a traumatismoy a otras actividades potencialmente de alto riesgo que involucran una bacteremia transitoria. El conocimiento de los orígenes de la endocarditis parte del trabajo de Fernel a principios del siglo XVI, y aun ahora esta infección representa un importante dilema de diagnóstico y manejo para los médicos. La endocarditis es ocasionada por una variedad de bacterias y hongos, así como por agentes infecciosos emergentes, incluyendo
Tropheryma whiplei, Bortonella spp. y
Rickettsia spp. Hacemos una revisión de la evolución de la endocarditis y comparamos su avance con descubrimientos en microbiología, ciencia y medicina.
