Aspergillus Infection in an Immunocompetent Host With Supravalvular Aortic Stenosis.

Sedigheh Saedi1, Zahra Khajali1, Azin Alizadehasl1.   

Abstract

Supravalvular aortic stenosis is the rarest form of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. Aspergillus endocarditis is also rare and generally reported in immunocompromised hosts. Here we present a case of an immunocompetent patient with supravalvular aortic stenosis complicated by aortic mycotic pseudoaneurysm due to invasive aspergillosis.
