Abstract

Abstract A 53-year-old male bioprosthetic aortic valve carrier presented with ACS. Outside hospital coronary angiography a week ago had been normal. Bedside echocardiography showed a rocking AV prosthesis. Patient underwent immediate valve surgery disclosing bioprosthetic ring endocarditis with partial ring detachment. MINOCA in prosthetic valve carriers should prompt early bedside TTE.
