متن کاملSurgical management of aortic prosthetic valve endocarditis
Background: Infective endocarditis (IE) is still associated with high mortality and morbidity despite advances in diagnostic, medical and surgical management. Aims: 1. To report shortand mid-term results after surgical treatment of IE in the current era and to compare the results between native valve endocarditis (NVE) and prosthetic valve endocarditis (PVE). 2. To prospectively compare the abi...
