Kingella kingae endocarditis in a sixteen-month-old-child.

L Wells1, N Rutter, F Donald.   

Abstract

We report the case of a child with acute neurologic symptoms who was found to have bacterial endocarditis caused by Kingella kingae. The case alerts microbiologists and pediatricians to an organism that has rarely been reported to cause endocarditis in children.
