Gram-negative endocarditis is rare and it has high mortality
if there is a delay in diagnosis and treatment. Gram-negative
organisms should be considered in the differential
diagnosis of IE in hemodialysis patients. Central lineassociated
bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) can be
prevented by following sterile measures during catheter
insertion and proper management of catheter site.

Introduction:
In contrast to embolic events to the brain, lungs and spleen which have been comprehensively discussed in literature, acute limb ischemia (ALI) due to septic embolism (SE) from infective endocarditis (IE) are uncommonly reported. There have been no reported cases of ALI as a complication of IE among Filipinos to date making this case report the first in our country
Case Presentation:
We report two cases of communityacquired native valve endocarditis caused by streptococcus spp. and enterococcus faecalis. Both patients had large and mobile vegetations in the mitral valve and aortic valve respectively on transthoracic echocardiography. The first one developed ALI (IIa) on the R leg after the initiation of antibiotics. The second case presented with ALI (IIa) on the R leg on admission. They were given the appropriate antibiotics and received systemic anticoagulation with heparin. The first case underwent successful emergency embolectomy on the R leg but developed new-onset ALI on the L leg and refused further intervention. Embolectomy was also recommended on the second patient who also re-fused any intervention. Despite maximal medical management, both patients subsequently expired
Conclusion
Infective endocarditis (IE) patients are at risk to develop SE before or during the initiation of appropriate antibiotics. ALI is a life threatening extra cardiac complication of IE. Early recognition and prompt aggressive management are therefore imperative.
