Several fulminant myocarditis (FM) resulting in early death from intractable cardiogenic shock have been reported. FM is characterized by the onset of cardiac symptoms in otherwise young healthy patients, rapidly resulting in severe ventricular dysfunction and cardiogenic shock. Complete recovery is possible if the patient is successfully supported by mechanical circulatory support during the acute phase of the illness. We report the case of a young patient with viral myocarditis who was successfully weaned from an Impella Recover LP 2.5 assist device with the recovery of myocardial function.
已有数例暴发性心肌炎（FM）导致因顽固性心源性休克早期死亡的报道。FM的特征是原本健康的年轻患者出现心脏症状，迅速导致严重的心室功能障碍和心源性休克。如果患者在疾病急性期得到机械循环支持的成功救治，则有可能完全康复。我们报告了一例病毒性心肌炎年轻患者的病例，该患者在心肌功能恢复后成功撤离了Impella Recover LP 2.5辅助装置。
