The incidence of PVL was high in patients with both valves replaced compared with either mitral or aortic valve replacement. Moreover, every patient with PVL should be properly investigated for infective endocarditis. Surgical intervention, although associated with high morbidity and mortality, reduces PVL recurrence.
