Pathogenesis of infectious endocarditis: Abnormal valves ([...]) lead to increased risk of endocarditis.
With endothelial disruption, thrombus is likely to develop. Then transient bacteremia allows bacteria to colonize the thrombus. More thrombus will develop and bacteria continue to grow, causing injury to underlying structures.
Answer
focal disruption of valvular endothelium
