Abstract:
Rothia dentocariosa is a gram-positive rod found commonly as part of the normal flora of the mouth. It rarely causes clinical disease. Subacute infective endocarditis has been the most commonly reported R dentocariosa infection, and extracardiac complications occur frequently. Solitary intracranial hemorrhages have been reported in two cases. We describe the first case of infective endocarditis complicated by the sequential and unusually prolonged development of multiple new intracranial hemorrhages.
