Introduction: Infective endocarditis (IE) is a disease that may frequently lead to significant morbidity and is associated with high mortality rates. Even though IE is classically caused by Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-negative bacteria may seldom cause IE. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) may pose significant problems in treating IE, especially for carbapenem-resistant pathogens.

While TAVI is generally safe and effective, it can be complicated by rare adverse events such as prosthetic leaflet dislodgment leading to acute free aortic regurgitation.
Case Presentation: We report the case of a female patient who experienced acute free aortic regurgitation following elective TAVI.
