The most important complications of
endocarditis
are congestive heart failure, paravalvular abscess formation, and embolism, especially stroke. In addition,
endocarditis
may be complicated by septic arthritis, vertebral osteomyelitis, pericarditis, metastatic abscesses and an array of renal problems ranging from immune-complex glomerulonephritis to renal abscesses. Adverse reactions associated with medical treatment of
endocarditis
can also result in significant complications such as ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity, skin rashes, and
serum sickness
. This review focuses on the cardiac, embolic, neurologic and renal complications of
endocarditis
and discusses how these complications influence the clinical management of individual cases in daily practice.
