36. [Endocarditis due to an alga of the genus Prototheca sp. A saprophyte of water and of tree sap?] [Article in Spanish] Buendía A , Patiño E , Rijlaarsdam M , Loredo ML , Rivera E , Ramírez S , Attie F . Departamento de Cardiología Pediátrica, Instituto Nacional de Cardiología Ignacio Chávez, INCICH, México, D.F. We report a case of a preterm neonate with very low birth weight (775 grs), He stayed 77 days in a neonatal care unit due to respiratory distress syndrome, with respiratory support for 27 days, and complications in gastrointestinal and nervous systems. In a structural normal heart, he developed infective endocarditis that was treated with good bacteriologic results. An echocardiogram showed the persistence of a mass in the right atrium, the mass was a thrombus and it was resected. Histopathological analysis and cultures of the thrombus reported Prototheca sp. that is an algae. The patient received medical treatment with amphothericin B with satisfactory clinical evolution. He is doing well 6 months later. This is the first report of literature of an algae causing endocarditis.
