Infective endocarditis involving the right side of the heart occurs rarely and often involves the tricuspid valve. The isolated pulmonary valve infective endocarditis (IPVIE) is a less common condition that occurs in specific population. The double outlet right ventricle (DORV) is an unusual congenital heart disease. The association of DORV and IPVIE darkens the prognosis. We report two cases of the association of DORV and IPVIE. The transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is the base to the diagnosis. Right sided infective endocarditis in the lack of a guided strategy remains a therapeutic challenge.

In the first place, the right ventricle is the primary or only point of origin for both main arteries in a patient with double outlet right ventricle (DORV). In order to guarantee proper repair, a wide variety of surgical approaches, considerations, and procedures are required for the wide spectrum of disorders that make up DORV. A functional classification based on physiological characteristics is one technique to classifying it, which might help determine the appropriate surgical strategy. Presentation of the case: Our case study focused on a female newborn infant who was 2 months old when she arrived at the hospital complaining of worsening shortness of breath and anorexia. The patient was diagnosed with pulmonary over-circulation, an abnormal accumulation of blood flowing into the lungs, through the following cardiac abnormalities: double outlet right ventricle (DORV) with a non-committal ventricular septal defect (VSD), no pulmonary stenosis (PS), mitral atresia, atrial septal defect (ASD), single ventricle dominance (SVD), anomalous pulmonary venous drainage (APVD), and patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). After a palliative procedure including the closure of the PDA and the implantation of a PA band, the patient was to have a surgical procedure known as univentricular repair. During the surgical meeting, this course of action was agreed upon. Conclusion: Different atrial configurations, atrioventricular connections, ventricular morphologies, and spatial interactions between the main arteries may all contribute to the wide anatomical spectrum of DORV. In order to decide between biventricular repair and univentricular palliation, several anatomical features must be present in the patient. In addition, palliative treatments may be necessary for certain patients before they may have a permanent surgical repair.
