Tropheryma whipplei infective endocarditis as the only manifestation of Whipple's disease.

ABSTRACT: Here we describe a case of infective endocarditis caused by Tropheryma whipplei in a patient with no other symptoms of Whipple's disease. The case was diagnosed using broad-range PCR and confirmed by specific PCRs. We review the cases of infective endocarditis presenting as the only manifestation of Whipple's disease reported in the literature.
