Isolated pulmonic valve endocarditis in an adult patient with ventricular septal defect and infundibular pulmonary stenosis.
Ventricular septal defect associated with infundibular pulmonary stenosis is a relatively uncommon congenital cardiac defect. We report the first case of a patient with perimembranous small ventricular septal defect and infundibular stenosis suffered from pulmonary valve endocarditis and septic pulmonary embolism.
