Infective endocarditis affecting the right cavities represents approximately 5% of the total of endocarditis cases. We present a case with a history of three-valve infective endocarditis, treated with biological aortic prosthesis, mitral valve repair, and tricuspid valvulectomy. Cardiac imaging study performed twenty years after surgery showed a severely dilated right ventricle with normal systolic function. The right ventricle can adapt to volume overload for a long period of time; however, the implantation of a tricuspid prosthesis is needed to prevent long term right ventricular dysfunction
