摘要：
We describe a case of native valve endocarditis caused by Staphylococcus lugdunensis, a perineal skin commensal, and review 28 other cases from the medical literature. Correctly identifying this coagulase-negative organism is critical because endocarditis is usually associated with left sided valvular disruption and life-threatening embolic complications, reminiscent of disease caused by Staphylococcus aureus. Urgent surgical intervention is necessary in most cases.
