The use is reported of the AngioVac system to resolve a case of persistent bacteremia in the setting of MRSA tricuspid valve infective endocarditis. The infection was secondary to intravenous drug use in a patient who had failed multiple antibiotic regimens and was deemed a poor surgical candidate.
