Acute fulminant myocarditis frequently causes circulatory collapse that is resistant to conventional therapy. We describe a case in which a patient with histologically confirmed viral myocarditis was supported by a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) as a bridge to recovery. The LVAD was successfully weaned 3 weeks later.
急性暴发性心肌炎常导致对传统治疗有抵抗性的循环衰竭。我们描述了一例组织学确诊为病毒性心肌炎的患者，通过左心室辅助装置（LVAD）作为恢复的桥梁得到支持。3周后LVAD成功撤机。
