In a 33-year-old man with an abnormal ECG three weeks after an episode of a sore throat, laboratory investigations revealed signs of a recent streptococcal infection. Mitral valvular and aortic valvular regurgitation were confirmed by echocardiography. The diagnosis of acute rheumatic fever was established according to the Jones criteria.
