It also demonstrates the limitations of negative TOE findings in the evaluation of right\u2010sided IE, particularly when prosthetic valves are involved. Cardiac CT is crucial when TOE results are negative but clinical suspicion for prosthetic right\u2010sided IE remains high, as it aids in diagnosing both the infection and its perivalvular or periprosthetic complications.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1155\/crdi\/1815282","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,15]],"date-time":"2025-10-15T13:09:45Z","timestamp":1760533785000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["First Described Case of Infective Endocarditis Involving the Pulmonary Valve Caused by\n                    <i>Moraxella catarrhalis<\/i>"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2025","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9374-5746","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"P.","family":"Karamani","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"E.","family":"Christopoulou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"A.","family":"Negash","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3607-4004","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"C.","family":"Charalambous","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"G.
