Recurrent infective endocarditis in a patient after a second Melody valve placement

Daiji Takajo, Thomas J. Forbes, Sanjeev Aggarwal

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

A 16-year-old Caucasian male was diagnosed with recurrent infective endocarditis associated with his second Melody valve placed inside a previously treated infected Melody valve. The replacement of Melody valve after the first infective endocarditis episode might increase the risk of the second episode of infective endocarditis.
