Infective endocarditis due to Gram-negative, non-HACEK bacteria is a rare clinical entity.

These disease pathologies commonly occur in the setting of intravenous drug abuse, indwelling catheters or cardiac devices, or underlying structural
heart disease
. We present a unique case of pulmonic valve endocarditis in the setting of persistent polymicrobial bacteremia with
Klebsiella

and
Citrobacter koseri
with recent gastrointestinal instrumentation evolving into isolated pulmonic valve endocarditis.
