Abstrakt: Infective endocarditis (IE) in users of continuous venipuncture for aesthetic procedures such as treatment with Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and parenteral drugs (IPDU) is a rare but potentially serious complication. The clinical, microbiological, and histological data of an episode of infective endocarditis (IE) are described where Osler's Nodules and Janeway Lesions played a crucial role in the diagnosis of (IE). 43-year-old male, with no history of parenteral drug use (IPDU), but with a significant history of a facial aesthetic procedure such as peeling with platelet-rich plasma on repeated occasions. We present and discuss the diagnostic challenges and stigma associated with DUVP in this clinical context. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
