<prompt> All are true about non-bacterial thrombotic endocarditis, except-Cause emboliVegetation 5 mmNo inflammatory reactionLocally nondestructive  <response>: Nonbacterial thrombotic endocarditis NBTE is characterized by the deposition of small 1 to 5 mm in diameter thrombotic masses composed mainly of fibrin and platelets on cardiac valves. Although NBTE can occur in otherwise healthy persons, a wide variety of diseases associated with general debility or wasting are associated with an increased risk of NBTE--hence the alternate term marantic endocarditis. In contrast with infective endocarditis, the valvular lesions of NBTE are sterile and are nondestructive. Robbins Basic Pathology,9th edition,pg no.391
