| Popis: |
Left atrial (LA) mural endocarditis is exceedingly rare, and carries an increased risk of embolization. Ours was a case of rheumatic mitral regurgitation and infective endocarditis due to Staphylococcus hominis, with vegetations over the mitral valve and the posterior LA wall which embolized widely. This case is presented for its rarity and to highlight the plethora of events after septic embolization. |
