Popis: A 27-year-old man admitted with tricuspid valve endocarditis with a large vegetation, persistent bacteremia, and pulmonary and systemic septic embolization was deemed not a suitable surgical candidate. He underwent percutaneous vegetation debulking using the AngioVac system. The patient defervesced post-operatively with clinical improvement but with abruptly worsened tricuspid regurgitation. (Level of Difficulty: Beginner.)
