    Mitral valve rheumatoid nodule complicated by infective endocarditis

  • Original language description

    We report a case of a 73-year-old male with rheumatoid arthritis presenting with acute abdominal and back pain and rapidly developing multiorgan failure. A positive blood culture (Staphylococcus aureus, Candida species) followed by transoesophageal sonography established a diagnosis of mitral valve infective endocarditis. At the autopsy, the heart examination revealed fibrinous pericarditis and multiple small vegetations on the mitral valve. The mitral valve itself showed no significant damage. Surprisingly, the histological examination of the mitral valve showed granulomatous inflammation with central fibrinoid necrosis and peripheral palisade of histiocytes, with occasional giant cells and lymphocytic inflammatory infiltrate - findings consistent with a rheumatoid nodule. Infective vegetations were overlying the nodule. Due to its relative frequency, a possibility of cardiac involvement by rheumatoid arthritis and its potential infective complications should be considered in patients with appropriate history and clinical symptoms.
