Multivalvular Endocarditis Involving 3 Valves in a Nonsurgical Candidate.

Infective endocarditis is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Hence, early diagnosis and prompt intervention is crucial. Multivalvular endocarditis involving 3 or more valves is rarely reported with little information regarding best management or prognosis, particularly in nonsurgical patients. Conflicting guidelines regarding medical versus surgical treatment in multivalvular endocarditis exist with few studies describing the outcome of medically managed patients. We report the case of a previously healthy male presenting with infective endocarditis involving 3 valves further complicated by multiple septic emboli and deemed a nonsurgical candidate.
