Abstract: Objective To summarize experience in treating patients with native value endocarditis ( NVE) , and discuss the effect of timing of surgery on the infection control , cardiac function recovery and long-term mortality among patients . Methods Eighty NVE cases with antibiotic treatment were recruited between January 2006 and May 2013 .According to the timing of surgery, the subjects were divided into the early surgery group (38 cases) and the late surgery group (42 ca-ses) .The infection-related markers and cardiac function indexes before and after surgery , and 1-year, 3-year and 5-year mortality after surgery were analyzed .Results The infection control and recovery of cardiac function in the early surgery group were better than in the late surgery group (P<0.05).The difference in 3-year and 5-year mortalities between the two groups was significant .Conclusions For NVE patients with routine antibiotics treatment , the surgical effect and long-term survival rate are much better in the early surgery group than in the late surgery group .
