In a patient with pseudomonas endocarditis a pulmonary regurgitant murmur developed. Sequential echocardiography demonstrated the initial absence of vegetations, the evolution of pulmonary valve vegetations with relapse and finally the apperance of vegetations on all cardiac valves. The findings were confirmed at autopsy. Echocardiography, a useful technique for evaluating mitral, aortic and tricuspid vegetations, can also detect pulmonary valve vegetations.
