Abstract
Austrian Syndrome Associated with Pandemic (H1N1) 2009 in Child
Highlights
1. Espié E, Grimont F, Mariani-Kurkdjian P, Bouvet P, Haeghebaert S, Filliol I, et al Surveillance of hemolytic uremic syndrome in children less than 15 years of age, a system to monitor O157 and nonO157 Shiga toxin–producing Escherichia coli infections in France, 1996–2006
One case of Austrian syndrome has been reported in the pediatric age group, in a 7-year-old girl in whom aortic valve endocarditis developed
Valve replacement must be considered to avoid development of cardiogenic shock, whereas medical treatment alone may be adequate in some cases of mitral endocarditis (3,4)
