摘要：
A 68-year-old man with septic discitis of low lumbar spine is presented. The patient suffered an acute hemorrhagic stroke due to rupture of mycotic aneurysm. Streptococcus bovis biotype I was found in blood cultures. Echocardiography showed bioprosthesis aortic endocarditis. Cardiac surgery was not performed because of normal bioprosthesis function and absence of periannular complications. The patient was discharged after 6 weeks of antibiotic treatment.
