Systemic Embolization as the Initial Presentation of a Rare Cause of Infective Endocarditis.

Infective endocarditis is a rare disease and is associated with a high mortality rate. The following case describes a 56-year-old gentleman who presented to our hospital with a pulseless left leg concerning for acute limb ischemia, which was managed with emergent revascularization. His subsequent workup revealed IE due to a rare organism known as Streptococcus dysgalactiae. Through this case, we want to showcase this rare cause of IE and also highlight systemic embolization as its possible initial presentation.
