Libman-Sacks endocarditis

UCG is an effective approach for diagnosis of pericarditis and myocardial lesions in SLE but no effective method has been available for the diagnosis of Libman-Sacks endocarditis up to the present.

UCG是诊断SLE心包炎及心肌病变的较好方法。但到目前为止，尚无诊断Libman-Sacks心内膜炎的有效措施。

Methods: A case of antiphospholipid syndrome ( APS) with Libman-Sacks nonbacterial endocarditis misdiagnosised as subacute bacterial endocarditis ( SBE) was reported.

方法：报告1例抗磷脂综合征合并疣状心内膜炎误诊为亚急性细菌性心内膜炎病例。

This patient has systemic lupus erythematosus. Thus, these vegetations that can be on any valve or even on endocardial surfaces are consistent with Libman-Sacks endocarditis.

本例病人患有系统性红斑狼疮，这类赘生物可见于任何瓣膜乃至心内膜上，并且在形态上与Libman-Sacks心内膜炎的赘生物一致。
