Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a novel disease with various complications involving different organ systems caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus. While the respiratory complications associated with COVID-19 have been well publicized, our understanding of the nonpulmonary complications of COVID-19 is lacking. Herein we present a case of a middle-aged woman who developed myopericarditis, pericardial effusion, and tamponade in the setting of COVID-19 infection.
2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)是一种新型疾病,由严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2(SARS-CoV-2)病毒引起,有涉及不同器官系统的各种并发症。虽然与COVID-19相关的呼吸道并发症已得到充分报道,但我们对COVID-19的非肺部并发症仍缺乏了解。在此,我们报告一例中年女性在COVID-19感染情况下发生心肌心包炎、心包积液和心脏压塞的病例。
