Key Words Streptococcus bovis; Colorectal carcinoma; Endocarditis; Inflammation; Bacteremia; Case report
Core Tip This case report illustrates the well-recognized but still poorly understood link between Streptococcus bovis (S. bovis) infection and colorectal cancer (CRC). By detailing a patient who developed S. bovis bacteremia and dual-valve endocarditis in the setting of a small, localized cecal adenocarcinoma, the case provides insight into how early mucosal disruption from CRC may facilitate bacterial translocation and systemic infection. The report underscores the necessity of prompt colorectal evaluation in all patients with S. bovis bacteremia-even without gastrointestinal symptoms-and highlights the potential role of S. bovis both as a biomarker and a participant in CRC pathogenesis.
