📝 摘要

Tetracyclines are used for a variety of dermatologic conditions, and a known side effect of this therapy is hyperpigmentation in multiple tissues throughout the body. We present the case of a 66-year-old man who underwent aortic valve replacement and was found to have discoloration of the aortic valve leaflets associated with his chronic use of minocycline for rosacea. Minocycline-induced pigmentation of cardiac valves is a documented, although uncommon, phenomenon. There is no evidence linking valve pigmentation to functional valve defects. This case highlights an infrequent manifestation of minocycline-induced pigmentation.
