Abstract
We report a case of a pregnant woman who developed infective endocarditis further complicated by an intracranial mycotic aneurysm. She presented with massive intracranial haemorrhage in the third trimester of pregnancy. The disease process of infective endocarditis and peri-operative management of ruptured intracranial mycotic aneurysm during pregnancy are discussed.
