Popis: | Objectives: Tropheryma whipplei has been detected in 3.5% of the blood culture-negative cases of endocarditis in Spain. Experience in the management of T. whipplei endocarditis is limited. Here we report the long-term outcome of the treatment of previously reported patients who were diagnosed with infective endocarditis (IE) caused by T. whipplei from the Spanish Collaboration on Endocarditis-Grupo de Apoyo al Manejo de la Endocarditis Infecciosa en Espana (GAMES) and discuss potential options for antimicrobial therapy for IE caused by T. whipplei. Patients and methods: Seventeen patients with T. whipplei endocarditis were recruited between 2008 and 2014 in 25 Spanish hospitals. Patients were classified according to the therapeutic regimen: ceftriaxone and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, doxycycline + hydroxychloroquine and other treatment options. Results: Follow-up data were obtained from 14 patients. The median follow-up was 46.5months. All patients completed the antibiotic treatment prescribed, with a median duration of 13months. Six patients were treated with ceftriaxone and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (median duration 13months), four with doxycycline + hydroxychloroquine (median duration 13.8months) and four with other treatment options (median duration 22.3months). The follow-up after the end of the treatments was between 5 and 84months (median 24months). Conclusions: All treatment lines were effective and well tolerated. Therapeutic failures were not detected during the treatment. None of the patients died or experienced a relapse during the follow-up. Only six patients received antibiotic treatment in accordance with guidelines. These data suggest that shorter antimicrobial treatments could be effective. |
