Abstract

A 28-year-old woman previously known to have a ventricular septal defect presented with fever, headache, abdominal pain and nausea. Positive blood culture of methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus and the detection of vegetation attached to the right ventricular wall near the ostium of the ventricular septal defect confirmed diagnosis of infective endocarditis. After four weeks' treatment with proper antibiotics the patient recovered.
