Enterococcal endocarditis after extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy for nephrolithiasis.

We report a case of enterococcal endocarditis following extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) for ureteral stone. Although endocarditis following ESWL is very rare, transient bacteraemia occurs during ESWL. This case is a reminder that enterococcal endocarditis may follow innovative genitourinary procedures without appropriate prophylaxis.

Anicteric hepatitis and uveitis in a worker exposed to trichloroethylene.

A previously healthy woman developed acute anicteric hepatitis which slowly resolved, though bilateral anterior uveitis then appeared. No other cause than an occupational exposure to trichloroethylene was found, and rechallenge by resuming work has led to a transient increase in serum alkaline phosphatase. Both manifestations may constitute a rare systemic reaction to trichloroethylene.
