Abstract
A 50-year-old female patient with visual disturbances was referred for further evaluation of a heart murmur.
Fundoscopy revealed a Roth spot in both eyes. A physical examination showed peripheral signs of infective
endocarditis, including Osler nodes, Janeway lesions, and splinter hemorrhages. Our preoperative diagnosis
was subacute bacterial endocarditis with severe aortic regurgitation. The patient underwent aortic valve replacement
and was treated with intravenous antibiotics for 6 weeks postoperatively. The patient made a remarkable
recovery and was discharged without complications. We report this case of subacute endocarditis
with all 4 classic peripheral signs in a patient who presented with visual disturbance.
