Streptococcus suis(SS) infection is a zoonotic acute infectious disease, SS infective endocarditis is relatively rare, there is no case report of Streptococcus suis Serotype 1(SS1) causing mitral valve infection.The rapid progression of this patient's infection and the severe damage to the valve structure differ from the previous understanding of the relatively low virulence of SS1. Early diagnosis and selection of the correct antibiotic treatment according to the drug sensitivity is very important. If the infection causes damage to the structure of the body's mitral valve, resulting in regurgitation of blood and heart failure, prompt surgical treatment should be performed to improve heart function.
猪链球菌（SS）感染是一种人畜共患的急性传染病，猪链球菌感染性心内膜炎相对少见，尚无猪链球菌1型（SS1）引起二尖瓣感染的病例报道。该患者感染进展迅速，瓣膜结构严重受损，这与以往认为SS1毒力相对较低的认识不同。早期诊断并根据药敏选择正确的抗生素治疗非常重要。如果感染导致人体二尖瓣结构受损，引起血液反流和心力衰竭，应及时进行手术治疗以改善心功能。
