摘要
We present a case of a 48-year-old man with congenital bicuspid aortic valve, history of Ross procedure, prosthetic pulmonary valve and homograft with rapid molecular diagnosis and prompt surgical and medical treatment for Bipolaris fungal endocarditis with excellent outcome with early valve replacement, debridement, combination antifungal therapy, ongoing suppressive therapy after treatment.
