Escherichia coli is a rare cause of endocarditis. This article reports an 82-year-old male with a mechanical aortic valve replacement who was admitted for fever and fatigue. He was diagnosed with a tricuspid valve endocarditis caused by an extended spectrum beta lactamase producing Escherichia coli following positive blood cultures and echocardiography. He received six weeks of imipenem / cilastatin and subsequently improved and was discharged with ambulatory follow ups with his infectious disease specialist. © 2020 The Authors.Entero
