Case Report: We report the case of a 63-year-old patient who underwent aortic valve replacement with a biological valve for a bicuspid aortic stenosis, and LIMA-IVA single-bypass surgery. Two weeks later, he presented with Enterococcus faecillis bacteremia, attributed to left pyelonephritis and successfully treated with Amoxicillin. Two months after his surgery, he had a new bacteremia due to Enterococcus faecalis and we discovered a pseudo-aneurysm of the mitro-aortic trigone.

Article Synopsis
- Infective endocarditis (IE) can occur in adults with ventricular septal defects (VSD), and this case reports a rare instance involving systemic embolisms and aortic pseudoaneurysms.
- A 27-year-old woman with a previously asymptomatic VSD presented with prolonged fever and was found to have staphylococcus infection, heart murmurs, and serious complications like mycotic aneurysms and embolisms.
- The patient received targeted antibiotics and underwent urgent heart surgery, emphasizing the importance of checking for systemic embolism in right ventricle IE and noting that congenital VSD can lead to serious complications from bacteremia.

Traumatic middle meningeal artery aneurysm (TMMA) is a rare condition and a known cause of several different bleeding patterns after head injury. Once detected, they need to be treated as an emergency due to their potential for morbidity and mortality. Generally, recurrence does not occur in surgery for acute epidural hematoma if adequate hemostasis is achieved.
