This is the case of a 31 year old man with Brucella aortic valvular endocarditis which first manifested itself clinically as an acute myocardial infarction (AMI). He subsequently developed an acute aortic regurgitation, which together with the ventricular disfunction secondary to the myocardial necrosis caused severe heart failure requiring aortic valve replacement and aortic coronary graft in a first operation. The patient's subsequent evolution was negative with congestive heart failure refractory to medical treatment. For this reason he was submitted to a second operation in which an orthotopic cardiac transplant was carried out with good results. The patient remains symptom-free and has returned to his work.
