The dangers of dog bites.

David W Wareham1, Joy S Michael, Simon Warwick, Paul Whitlock, Alan Wood, Satya S Das.   

Abstract

This report describes an unusual case of endocarditis caused by Capnocytophaga canimorsus as a result of dog bite. The diagnosis could be established only by molecular techniques after amplification of bacterial DNA from the infected cardiac valve. The epidemiology and management of Capnocytophaga infections is discussed, as well as the role of prophylactic antibiotics in preventing these infections after dog bites.
