Right-sided infective endocarditis (IE), which represents a small but not negligible percentage of IE cases, can be observed in patients with congenital heart diseases. We discuss the case of a young woman with unrepaired perimembranous ventricular septal defect and repeated episodes of right ventricle and tricuspid valve IE with septic embolism.
