An 11-year-old child developed prosthetic valve endocarditis with associated infection of the prosthetic and pericardial patches 6 months following an aortoventriculoplasty. Angiography revealed an associated false aneurysm which communicated with both the ascending aorta and the right ventricular outflow tract. This report discusses the surgical management of this patient.
