Overview

There are no specific physical exam findings for non-bacterial thrombotic endocarditis. Patients with NBTE may show signs of systemic thromboembolism, cardiac dysfunction, and underlying diseases.

Physical Examination

There are no specific findings for non-bacterial thrombotic endocarditis. Patients with NBTE may show signs of systemic thromboembolism, cardiac dysfunction, and underlying diseases.

General appearance

  • Patients with NBTE usually appear non-toxic. Patients may present with acute signs of cerebral or systemic embolisms of signs or cardiac dysfunction.

Vital Signs

  • Fever (if due to malignancy or complicated by secondary infectious endocarditis
  • Hypotension (if severe left ventricular dysfunction is present)
  • Tachycardia
  • Tachypnea
  • Orthopnea

Skin

  • Raynaud's phenomenon (incase of peripheral embolism)
  • Malar rash (in patients with SLE)

HEENT

  • HEENT examination of patients with NBTE is usually normal.

Neck


Lungs

  • lung fields may be dull on percussion in the presence of secondary infection, or pleural effusion due to malignancy

Heart

Left ventricular hypertrophy due to aortic or mitral valve disease can present as any of the following:

    • Displacement of apex beat
    • Enlarged and sustained apical impulse
    • S4
    • S2 (due to aortic root dilatation)

Abdomen

  • Abdominal distension
  • Abdominal pain/tenderness in the left upper quadrant due to splenic embolism
  • Flank pain
  • Ascites may be observed in cases of heart failure and fluid overload

Genitourinary

  • Genitourinary examination of patients with NBTE is usually normal

Extremities

  • Clubbing may be seen in patients with malignancies
  • Cyanosis due to peripheral embolism
  • Pedal edema may be observed if heart failure is present
  • Polyarthralgia and arthritis may be observed
Some physical examination findings in patients with Nonbacterial thrombotic endocarditis
Pathology Physical examination finding
Left ventricular hypertrophy[1][2][3][4][5][6] LVH can present as any of the following:
Congestive heart failure Physical examination findings of CHF include:
Secondary infective endocarditis (IE)[7][8][9][10] IE can present as:
