    Abstract:
    A 29-year-old man had a prolonged fever and painful Osler's nodes on his right foot. The aortic valve was bicuspid with vegetation mass and the left ventricular diverticulum was additionally present connecting with the left ventricular outflow tract. An operation was performed after intravenous administration of antibiotics for 3 weeks. The aortic bicuspid valve and the vegetation were removed and replaced by an artificial valve (SJM-HP 19 mm). The left ventricular diverticulum was resected. The echocardiographic findings correlated well with the intraoperative observation.
