Abstract: Ischemic stroke is the most common neurological complication of endocarditis. Approximately 20% of patients with infective endocarditis (IE) present with stroke and in more than a third of them with nonbacterial throm- botic endocarditis (NBTE). Stroke is often one of the first symptoms of endocarditis. Population-based studies on cryptogenic stroke as defined by TOAST is 25% [1]. Not only the acquired risk factors are significant in vascular incidents, but also the genetic.
