Myopericarditis is a condition, which primarily involves the pericardium, with minimal myocardial involvement. In myopericarditis, chest pain, elevated cardiac enzymes, and electrocardiographic changes occur. Although COVID-19 mRNA vaccines significantly contribute to preventing the COVID-19 disease, rarely myocarditis and/or pericarditis may develop due to these vaccines. We present a previously healthy 14-year-old male patient who developed myopericarditis after receiving the second dose of the COVID-19 mRNA vaccine.
心肌炎是一种主要累及心包、心肌受累较少的疾病。在心肌炎中,会出现胸痛、心脏酶升高和心电图改变。虽然 COVID-19 mRNA 疫苗显著有助于预防 COVID-19 疾病,但由于这些疫苗,很少会发生心肌炎和/或心包炎。我们介绍了一位此前健康的 14 岁男性患者,他在接种第二剂 COVID-19 mRNA 疫苗后发生了心肌炎。
