dc.description.abstract | PCR was used to detect Coxiella burnetii and Bartonella spp in heart valves obtained during the period 1998–2009 from patients operated on for blood culture-negative endocarditis in a cardiac surgery hospital in Brazil. Of the 51 valves tested, 10 were PCR-positive; two were positive for Bartonella and one for C. burnetii. | |
