There are numerous case studies describing myocarditis and cardiac events in adults after insect envenomation. To our knowledge, there are no similar cases documented in children. We report a unique case of a 14-year-old adolescent boy who developed acute myocarditis after a bee sting. The pathophysiology involving envenomation and myocarditis remains poorly understood.
有许多描述昆虫蜇伤后成人心肌炎和心脏事件的病例研究。据我们所知,在儿童中没有类似的病例记录。我们报告了一例 14 岁青少年男孩被蜜蜂蜇伤后发生急性心肌炎的独特病例。涉及蜇伤和心肌炎的病理生理学仍知之甚少。
