INTRODUCTION Aicardi syndrome is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder predominantly affecting females and characterized by agenesis of the corpus callosum, infantile spasms, and distinctive chorioretinal lacunae. We present the case of a 24-year-old female with a known history of Aicardi syndrome who presented with fever of unknown origin, ultimately attributed to Staphylococcus Epidermidis infective endocarditis involving a native valve.
CASE DESCRIPTION A 24-year-old female with a history significant for Aicardi syndrome and epilepsy presented to the emergency department for fever during the past week; her primary care physician sent her for outpatient blood work a few days prior, including blood culture, …
