There has been 5 cases reported worldwide of isolated pulmonic valve endocarditis in a patient with VSD and none in the Philippines . This is a case of an isolated pulmonic valve endocarditis in a patient with VSD, which was echocardiographically documented and monitored and initially treated medically.
