dc.description.abstractInfective endocarditis is an infection of the endocardium that usually involves the valves and adjacent structures. The classical fever of unknown origin presentation represents a minority of infective endocarditis. The presented case was a 21-year-old young lady presenting with acute renal failure and fever to the emergency room. Cardiac auscultation revealed a soft S1 and 4/6 apical holosystolic murmur extended to axilla. Echocardiography showed mobile fresh vegetation under the mitral posterior leaflet. She was diagnosed as having infective endocarditis. Hemodialysis was started with antimicrobial therapy. However, because of the presence of severe mitral regurgitation with left ventricle dilatation and large mobile vegetation, mitral prosthetic mechanical valve replacement was performed. Although treated with antibiotics combined with surgery, renal functions were deteriorated and progressed to chronic renal failure.en_US
