[Infectious mitroaortic endocarditis complicated by valve perforation, mycotic aneurysm and splenorenal infarction]. / Endocardite infectieuse mitro-aortique compliquée de perforation valvulaire, d'anévrisme mycotique et d'infarctus spleno-rénal.

Infectious endocarditis is regarded as a potentially serious pathology despite the advances in diagnostic and treatment options. Valves on the left side of the heart are most affected and embolic events, mycotic aneurysms, abscesses as well as valve perforations are life-threatening consequences of this disease. We here report a case of endocarditis with aortic and mitral valve involvement complicated by splenic and renal infarction, cerebral mycotic aneurysm and mitral valve perforation. The interest in the subject of this case study is the positive medico-surgical treatment outcome obtained despite a multitude of complications.
