AB  - A  14-year-old  girl  with  a  history  of  mitral  regurgitation  that  complicated  rheumatic  heart  disease  was  brought  in  by  her  parents  after  two  weeks  of  intermittent  low-grade  fevers,  fatigue,  weakness,  arthralgias,  and  myalgias.  On  examination,  she  appeared  ill,  was  febrile,  and  had  a  heart  murmur.  Her  funduscopic  examination  revealed  Roth  spots  (Figures  44-1  and  44-2).  Her  blood  cultures  grew  Streptococcus  mitis.  An  echocardiogram  demonstrated  a  vegetation  on  the  mitral  valve.  She  was  hospitalized  and  treated  for  bacterial  endocarditis.
