Abstract

We present a rare case of bacterial endocarditis of the aortic valve complicated by intracranial haemorrhage, splenic and renal infarcts. Aortic valve replacement was complicated by delayed splenic rupture. The successful surgical management of this case is described as well as a review of the literature.
