Kidney injury is a well-known sequelae of infectious endocarditis. Various types of kidney injury can be seen, including endocarditis-associated glomerulonephritis, and may affect nearly half of the patients with infectious endocarditis.  Lactobacillus  species are an infrequently documented cause of endocarditis. We present a case of  Lactobacillus  endocarditis-associated glomerulonephritis in a patient with a complex medical history including  Lactobacillus  infection of an artificial heart valve. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of development of endocarditis-associated glomerulonephritis secondary to  Lactobacillus  species organisms. Furthermore, the patient's renal biopsy revealed several frequently overlooked concomitant findings including anti-coagulant nephropathy and renal amyloidosis.
