PG - 1349-1355 LID - 10.3899/jrheum.211379 [doi] AB - OBJECTIVE: While myocardial impairment is a predictor of poor prognosis in antineutrophil cytoplasm antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitides (AAV), little is known about valvular involvement. This study aims at describing the clinical presentation, management, and outcome of endocarditis associated with AAV. METHODS: We conducted a multicenter retrospective study in centers affiliated with the French Vasculitis Study Group. We included patients with granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA), microscopic polyangiitis (MPA), or eosinophilic GPA with endocardial impairment. A systematic review was then performed through PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library from inception up to September 2020. RESULTS: The retrospective cohort included 9 patients (82%) with GPA, 1 (9%) with MPA, and 1 (9%) with unclassified AAV. Clinical presentation included acute valvular insufficiency (n = 7, 64%), cardiac failure (n = 3, 27%), dyspnea (n = 3, 27%), and no symptoms (n = 2, 18%). The aortic valve was the most frequently affected (n = 8/10, 80%), and vegetations were noted in 4 of 10 patients (40%). Six patients (55%) underwent surgical valvular replacement. No death from endocarditis was reported. The systematic review retrieved 42 patients from 40 references: 30 (71%) had GPA, 21 (50%) presented with vegetations, the aortic valve (n = 26, 62%) was the most frequently involved. Valvular replacement was required in 20 cases (48%) and 5 patients (13%) died from the endocarditic impairment. CONCLUSION: Endocarditis is a rare and potentially life-threatening manifestation of AAV. Acute valvular insufficiency may lead to urgent surgery. Implementing transthoracic echocardiography in standard assessment at baseline and follow-up of AAV might reduce the delay to diagnosis and allow earlier immunosuppressive treatment before surgery is needed.
