摘要：

We present two cases of endocarditis where surgical intervention was deemed necessary to correct worsening heart failure and valvular incompetence. These cases highlight the role of echocardiography in the diagnosis and optimal management of endocarditis. Early diagnosis and prompt surgical intervention are critical for better outcome of endocarditis cases complicated by heart failure and valvular incompetence.
