We present a case study of a 54-year-old patient with a perforated aneurysm of the anterior mitral valve leaflet, diagnosed 13 years after an episode of bacterial endocarditis by transesophageal echocardiography. This report illustrates the superiority of transesophageal echocardiography in the diagnosis and management of valvular endocarditis.
