Abstract

Although a mitral annulus abscess often develops with infective endocarditis, penetration into the pericardial cavity is a very rare and fatal complication. Herein, we report a case of surgery with thorough debridement and appropriate reconstruction for a mitral annulus abscess with penetration into the pericardial cavity.
