Abstract

Following Coxiella burnetii infection, there is a 1 to 5% risk of chronic Q fever. Endocarditis, mycotic aneurysm, and vascular prosthesis infection are common manifestations. We present three patients with endocarditis by C. burnetii concomitant with another bacterial pathogen. Chronic Q fever should therefore be considered in all endocarditis patients in regions where Q fever is endemic.
