Overview

Common risk factors for endocarditis include prosthetic heart valves, valvular heart disease, congenital heart disease, intravenous drug use, age-related degenerative valvular lesions, immunosuppression, and colon cancer.

Risk Factors

Common risk factors in the development of infective endocarditis are:

Common risk factors in the development of nonbacterial thrombotic endocarditis include:
