Enterococcal endocarditis after extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy for nephrolithiasis.

O Zimhony1, S Goland, S D Malnick, D Singer, D Geltner.   

Abstract

We report a case of enterococcal endocarditis following extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) for ureteral stone. Although endocarditis following ESWL is very rare, transient bacteraemia occurs during ESWL. This case is a reminder that enterococcal endocarditis may follow innovative genitourinary procedures without appropriate prophylaxis.
