Peripheral nervous system involvement as the only neurological manifestation of infective endocarditis.

L G Lazzarino1, A Nicolai, T Mesiano.   

Abstract

We report a case of acute endocarditis with the unusual presentation of mononeuritis multiplex at onset. Mononeuropathy was the only detected neurological sign. The presence of muscular abscesses compressing the peripheral nervous system could lie at the basis of the pathophysiological mechanism responsible for acute mononeuropathy.
