ABSTRACT
We present a young patient who had to undergo 5 mitral valve replacements (MVR) because of a repetitive immune-mediated noninfectious endocarditis. The patient was treated with multiple anti-inflammatory drugs and high-dose prednisone. After the fifth MVR, the patient remained in stable condition using Anakinra after 22 months of follow-up. (Level of Difficulty Advanced.).
