Abstract
Objective: Dental pulp is acknowledged to be an organic tissue sample on which the microbiological diagnosis of blood-borne pathogens, including those responsible for infectious endocarditis, can be based.
Method: Molecular detection of S. aureus was performed in the dental pulp extracted from one tooth collected in a patient firmly diagnosed with S. aureus infectious endocarditis.
Result: We report on one patient diagnosed with Staphylococcus aureus endocarditis in whom S. aureus DNA was further detected by PCR in the dental pulp. We advocate not throwing away extracted teeth, appropriate microbial investigations of which may reveal bacteraemic pathogens not otherwise detectable.
Keywords:Bacteremia; Tooth; MALDI TOF MS; Microbiology; Diagnosis; Cardiology
