An unusual case of endocarditis of the native tricuspid valve secondary to a tunneled dialysis catheter.

endocarditis is a severe disease associated with high mortality rates. is frequently identified as the causative pathogen in intravenous drug users and is commonly associated with nosocomial infections, primarily due to its ability to form biofilms on catheters or other foreign bodies. Here, we present a rare case of endocarditis affecting the native tricuspid valve in a 35-year-old male patient with end-stage chronic kidney disease (Stage V), who had a suspected fungal infection related to the left cervical catheter.
