Abstract
A 43-year-old woman who had Candida endocarditis with saddle embolism underwent mitral valve replacement and resection of infected aorta. Only 7 persons with fungal endocarditis with saddle embolism have been reported in the literature, and all of them died. We report a case of successful treatment of this lethal complication of Candida endocarditis.Entities:
