title: [Bacterial endocarditis and echocardiography].
abstract: The authors present a case of enterococcal bacterial endocarditis in which a high degree of correlation was found between the echocardiographic findings and the anatomical lesions found at autopsy. They review the value of echocardiography as a simple non-invasive technique in the diagnosis and assessment of bacterial endocarditis.
