Lentini S et al. - The authors report the case of a 56-year-old patient with prosthetic valve endocarditis with vegetations, and concomitant risk factors for coronary disease. The authors did preoperative coronary screening using multi-detector computed tomographic scan imaging, which may be useful for noninvasive imaging of the coronary arteries in these patients with high risk of embolization.
