Abstract
Intermediate-term survival after surgery for IE in hemodialysis patients is substantially worse than that in nonhemodialysis patients, but only slightly worse than that in the general hemodialysis population and substantially better than that in hemodialysis patients with IE treated nonsurgically, supporting continued surgical intervention for IE.
