[Septic complications and atypical bacterial endocarditis in patients under hemodialysis].
In series of 68 patients who had been subjected to haemodialysis during life, septic complications were found in 16.2%. Bacterial endocarditis was observed in 8 of them. In 7 there occurred in abscess-like colliquation in the calcified attachment of the mitral valve. Lesioning by friction and an accelerated development of dystrophic valvular lesions are regarded the probable main etiopathogenic factors.
