La fièvre rhumatismale est une maladie inflammatoire qui peut s'attaquer au tissu conjonctif dans plusieurs parties du corps, plus particulièrement dans le cœur, les articulations, le cerveau et la peau. Cette maladie débute habituellement par une infection à streptocoque dans la gorge (angine streptococcique) [...] 1, record 1, French, - fi%C3%A8vre%20rhumatismale
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
L'une des répercussions très fréquentes d'une fièvre rhumatismale (appelée aussi rhumatisme articulaire aigu) est l'atteinte d'une valvule cardiaque (valvulopathie). [...] Chacune des parties du cœur - y compris l'enveloppe extérieure (péricarde), l'enveloppe intérieure (endocarde) et les valvules - peut être endommagée par l'inflammation qui accompagne la fièvre rhumatismale aiguë. Cependant, la forme la plus courante de cardite rhumatismale frappe les valvules cardiaques, en particulier la valvule mitrale. Après un épisode de fièvre rhumatismale, plusieurs années peuvent s'écouler avant l'apparition d'une lésion valvulaire ou de symptômes. 1, record 1, French, - fi%C3%A8vre%20rhumatismale
