We report a case of Staphylococcus aureus endocarditis, with large vegetation, in a 17-month-old male infant, complicated with meningitis, ischaemic strokes and osteoarthritis leading to haemorrhagic stroke by aneurysm rupture. He did not present any risk factor for endocarditis. The final course was favourable through, after valve replacement. The strain was sensible to methicillin and belongs to complex clonal 398, with accessory gene regulator I. We did not found immunodeficiency.
