Abstract (2. Language): 
Here, we present a case of Brucella endocarditis of the native aortic valve. A 44-years-old man was admitted to our hospital with a pre-diagnosis of Brucella endocarditis of the aortic valve. In our hospital, the diagnosis of brucellosis was established by clinical features, positive blood culture and positive serology. Medical treatment (doxycycline and rifampicin) was insufficient and echocardiography showed a mass of vegetation and fourth degree aortic insufficiency. Replacement of the aortic valve was carried out as emergency procedure. Blood and valve cultures were positive for Brucela melitensis. The patient was discharged on 8th postoperative day and received the same antibiotic therapy for 3 months. The patient was regularly controlled throughout postoperative 30 months, and the clinical status has been found excellent.
