Janeway lesions on her palms. She had undergone transcatheter patent foramen ovale closure with a 30-mm Amplatzer Cribriform device (Abbott, Chicago, Illinois) 6 years before. Two months before onset, she had received dental procedures without antibiotic prophylaxis. Blood cultures grew methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Transthoracic echocardiography showed slightly flickered lesions on the left atrial side of the device, but these were unclear. Transesophageal echocardiography showed a 20 x 15-mm highly mobile mass attached to the left atrial surface of the device, which was amoeboid-like. The hypoechoic material was surrounded by a membrane (Figure 1, Online Video 1). Urgent surgery was performed. The incomplete endothelialization and mass on the right atrial disc were found (Figure 2A). During an incision through the septum, the purulent matter flowed out of the highly
