摘要：
Right-sided involvement is fairly common in infective endocarditis, but involvement of the eustachian valve is distinctly rare. We present the case of a 36-year-old intravenous drug user with staphylococcal bacteremia and septic pulmonary emboli. Transthoracic echocardiography was normal, but transesophageal echocardiography revealed a large eustachian valve vegetation. This case illustrates the utility of multiplane transesophageal echocardiography in the evaluation of eustachian valve pathology.
