Biomass-Derived Materials for Electrochemical Energy Storage and Conversion: Overview and Perspectives

[摘要] Introduction: Infective endocarditis (IE) causes serious complications in patients. Congenital heart disease (CHD) is an important underlying condition in children. Septic pulmonary embolism is an uncommon syndrome, and pulmonary valve IE is rare. The current study presented a case of right-sided IE with pulmonary valve involvement and its complications as pulmonary septic emboli in a child with CHD. Case Presentation: A 6-year-old girl with a ventricular septal defect (VSD) was presented. Echocardiography revealed large vegetation in the right ventricular outflow tract near the pulmonary valve. The patient showed clinical symptoms of lung involvement, and radiologic investigation was compatible with a diagnosis of septic pulmonary emboli. She had good response to antibacterial therapy and underwent a successful surgical closure of the heart defect. Conclusions: Children with CHD are at risk of severe complications with the involvement of other organs. long-term febrile illness should be taken seriously in these children. They need hospitalization and careful evaluation.
