Infective endocarditis caused by Neisseria macacae in humans is extremely rare. We presented here a case of N. macacae infective endocarditis in a 61-year-old man with a native aortic valve infection. N. macacae was isolated from blood culture and was detected by nanopore-based metagenomic sequencing in the vegetations. Finally, the patient recovered completely after surgery and antibiotic therapy.

纳米孔测序辅助精确诊断猕猴感染性心内膜炎。

在人类中，由猕猴杆菌引起的感染性心内膜炎极为罕见。我们在这里介绍了一名患有自然主动脉瓣感染的61岁男子的猕猴感染性心内膜炎的病例。从血培养物中分离出猕猴，并通过基于纳米孔的宏基因组测序在植被中检测到。最终，患者在接受手术和抗生素治疗后完全康复。
