Successful Management of Infective Endocarditis Involving Double Native Valves after TUR-P: A Case Report

Aims: Infective endocarditis (IE) is an uncommon, yet potentially fatal disease characterized by infection of the endocardial surface, frequently affecting heart valves.Surgical interventions involving the urinary system can lead to temporary bacteraemia, which is crucial for the development of infective endocarditis.This report presents a case of double valve infective endocarditis in a diabetic patient subsequent to transurethral prostate removal, which was successfully addressed through surgical intervention.Presentation of Case: A 65-year-old male patient with a history of hypertension and diabetes presented with new-onset heart failure and low-grade fever one month following transurethral Case Report
