ABSTRACT
Serratia marcescens endocarditis is a rare occurrence. We describe a case of Serratia endocarditis in a patient with a prosthetic valve. The clinical course was complicated by widespread embolic phenomena causing stroke, gangrene of extremities, and septic emboli to the lungs, spleen, and eyes. She was not considered suitable for surgery due to severe consumptive coagulopathy and thrombocytopenia in the setting of widespread emboli. The patient was transitioned to do not resuscitate status and discharged to a long-term care facility with a grave prognosis explained to the family.
