Abstract EN

Enterococcus hirae is a rare isolate in clinical specimens.

We describe a case of native aortic valve endocarditis in a 56-year-old man.

This is the third reported case of endocarditis due to this organism, the first without recurrence of endocarditis and the first presenting as a neurological deficit.
