Conclusion:
As we understood Q fever-induced endocarditis usually does not present
with specific clinical manifestations and echocardiographic evidence,
therefore early diagnosis and proper treatment are generally delayed.
This mismanagement leads to different complications and increases the
morbidity and mortality rate. According to the endemic distribution of Q
fever in various regions, clinicians must consider any suspicious animal
contact and keep this diagnosis in mind. We can decrease the diagnostic
delay by making the laboratory tests available and performing rapid
diagnostic tests for those with a history of animal contacts or other
complicated underlying conditions.
