| subacute bacterial endocarditis | Subacute bacterial endocarditis is usually due to Streptococcus viridans or S. Fecalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nonbacterial thrombotic endocarditis | Verrucous endocardial lesions occurring in the terminal stages of many chronic infectious and wasting diseases. Synonym: abacterial thrombotic endocarditis, cachectic endocarditis, terminal endocarditis, thromboendocarditis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nonbacterial verrucous endocarditis | Verrucous endocarditis sometimes associated with disseminated lupus erythematosus. Synonym: atypical verrucous endocarditis, Libman-Sacks syndrome, nonbacterial verrucous endocarditis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| endocarditis | <pathology> Exudative and proliferative inflammatory alterations of the endocardium, characterised by the presence of vegetations on the surface of the endocardium or in the endocardium itself and most commonly involving a heart valve, but sometimes affecting the inner lining of the cardiac chambers or the endocardium elsewhere. It may occur as a primary disorder or as a complication of or in association with another disease. (18 Nov 1997) |
| endocarditis chordalis | Endocarditis affecting particularly the chordae tendineae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| endocarditis, subacute bacterial | Infection of the endocardium caused by species of streptococcus. This condition does not produce metastatic foci and if untreated may take up to a year to be fatal. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Libman-Sacks endocarditis | Verrucous endocarditis sometimes associated with disseminated lupus erythematosus. Synonym: atypical verrucous endocarditis, Libman-Sacks syndrome, nonbacterial verrucous endocarditis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Loffler's endocarditis | Fibroplastic parietal endocarditis with eosinophilia, an endocarditis of obscure cause characterised by progressive congestive heart failure, multiple systemic emboli, and eosinophilia. Synonym: Loffler's disease, Loffler's syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Loffler's parietal fibroplastic endocarditis | Sclerosis of the endocardium in the presence of a high eosinophile count. (05 Mar 2000) |
| abnormal cleavage of cardiac valve | Congenital malformation of a valve leaflet with a defect extending from the free margin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Amussat's valve | A series of crescentic folds of mucous membrane in the upper part of the cystic duct, arranged in a somewhat spiral manner. Synonym: plica spiralis ductus cystici, Amussat's valve, Heister's valve, spiral valve of cystic duct, valvula spiralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
