Endocarditis infecciosa subaguda en paciente con comunicación interventricular y embolización
Infective endocarditis is an uncommon condition with important complications and possible fatal outcome. We present the case of a 24 year old patient with aortic coarctation intervened at 8 days of life leaving perimembranous ventricular septal defect, which present subacute infective endocarditis with paradoxical embolization, successfully treated with antibiotics.
