A 38-year-old man presented with cough, shortness of breath, and fatigue.
He was diagnosed with Coronavirus Disease-2019 (COVID-19) as well as Enterococcus faecalis bacteremia.
Imaging revealed a subaortic membrane with aortic valve endocarditis and severe aortic insufficiency.
He had successful aortic valve replacement with a mechanical prosthesis and subaortic membrane resection.
This case highlights some of the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges presented by COVID-19 pandemic.
