Streptococcus bovis  is found as a commensal organism in human gut and may become opportunistically pathogenic. Infective endocarditis is one of the commonest modes of presentation of this infection. The association between  Streptococcus bovis  endocarditis and colorectal cancer is well recognized. We report a case of  Streptococcus bovis  endocarditis along with a refractory iron deficiency anaemia associated with concomitant carcinoma of ascending colon in a 63-year-old male. Cooccurrence of these two conditions may cause a challenge in the management. Considering the strong association of colon cancer with  Streptococcus bovis  endocarditis, a detailed screening colonoscopy is mandatory following the diagnosis of the latter.
