    Author: Sands M, Brown RB, Ryczak M, Hamilton W.
    Journal: South Med J; 1987 Jun; 80(6):780-2. PubMed ID: 3589773.
    Abstract:
    We have reported a case of Streptococcus pneumoniae endocarditis involving the aortic valve of a 61-year-old alcoholic man. Antibiotic therapy with vancomycin sterilized the blood and valve, but aortic valve replacement was required for progressive congestive heart failure resulting from a ruptured valve leaflet.
