Özet
Pseudomonas stutzeri is a gram-negative bacterium that rarely leads to infective endocarditis. We presented an interesting case of late dehiscence of an aortic valve conduit, eight years after the Benthall-DeBono procedure, because of anastomotic leakage from the distal end of the conduit and resultant large pseudoaneurysm and severe paravalvular aortic insufficiency in the setting of infective endocarditis caused by P. stutzeri.
