Endocarditis Parietal

The endocardium is the inner lining of the heart, covering the valves and the inner surface of the heart chambers. Endocarditis can occur in both adults and children. This is an inflammatory process in the endocardium. For example, infective endocarditis, caused by staphylococci, streptococci, or bacteria that may be present in a person's mouth, skin, or gastrointestinal tract. But it can also be the body’s reaction to the presence of certain substances inside the cardiac system, for example, if a patient has kidney or liver disease, then different types of endocarditis occur.

Endocarditis is an infection that affects the inner lining of the heart. Pathology develops for various reasons related to the presence of fungal infections, viruses, and bacteria. The infection enters the cardiac lining through open trauma, hemodialysis, organ transplantation, or damage to the heart or valves. The causative agents of the disease are viruses, bacteria, and fungi. The source of the lesion is usually the mitral valve or the Ao valve, located at the back of the heart.

With endocarditis, the valve tissue peels off. The inner layer itself begins to ulcerate, causing the formation of holes where blood enters. Gradually, the valve ceases to cope with its functions and can completely block the lumen, which is fraught with the development of heart failure. Development of endocarditis
