摘要
We present a rare complication of infective endocarditis, perforated periaortic abscess with fistulous communication between the aortic root, the left atrium, and the left ventricular outflow tract. Preoperative transthoracic echocardiographic diagnosis was confirmed intraoperatively. The patient was treated successfully by aortic homograft implantation.
