Abstract

Infective endocarditis is an uncommon disease, which most often affects elderly subjects at risk or with favorable factors. Its prognosis is guarded with complications or decompensating factors that are often formidable. We report the case of an acute endocarditis decompensated by acute alithiasic cholecystitis in a 52-year-old patient, with a history of diagnosed end-stage renal failure (GFR 7 ml/min according to the MDRD) for 4 weeks, of undetermined etiology, undergoing hemodialysis, followed for aortic disease for 6 years (IAO grade II, RAO loose). After 6 weeks, the evolution was favorable under adapted and early antibiotic treatment and associated hygiene measures including gastric rest. Infective endocarditis remains a serious pathology, due to its high morbi-mortality. The association of acute infective endocarditis and acute alithiasic cholecystitis is of reserved prognosis especially on a ground of immunodepression like the end-stage chronic renal failure. This association requires a rapid and efficient management.
