Die infektiöse Endokarditis ist eine seltene Erkrankung mit hoher Morbidität und Letalität. Die Leitlinien der Europäischen Gesellschaft für Kardiologie (ESC) dokumentieren und bewerten die vorhandene Evidenz und geben Empfehlungen zur Prävention, Diagnostik und Therapie der infektiösen Endokarditis für den klinischen Alltag. Der vorliegende Beitrag enthält eine von der Paul-Ehrlich-Gesellschaft für Chemotherapie, der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Kardiologie, Herz- und Kreislaufforschung und weiteren Deutschen Fachgesellschaften initiierte, kommentierte Zusammenfassung des im Jahr 2009 erschienen Updates der ESC-Leitlinien.

Abstract
