Talaromyces marneffei endocarditis initially detected by Next Generation Sequencing: A case report
CONCLUSION: Infective endocarditis is becoming more and more common in the elderly due to the widely use of invasive surgical procedures and implantation of intracardiac devices. The diagnosis and treatment of T. marneffei endocarditis is challenging because of its rarity. Here, we discussed a case of T. marneffei endocarditis, and emphasized the role of mNGS in early diagnosis, which is of great significance for treatment and survival rate of patients.PMID:38394877 | DOI:10.1016/j.ijmm.2024.151615
