Myocarditis is associated with a wide range of infections, most commonly viral (cytomegalovirus), bacterial, and parasitic (). Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) rarely causes myocarditis, which is a life-threatening complication. Autoantibodies against cardiac myocytes activate the complement system and cause diffuse myocyte necrosis. Myocarditis has a variable presentation from asymptomatic to cardiogenic shock. Over time, untreated myocarditis can progress and result in dilated ventricles. Continued dilation of ventricles leads to systolic dysfunction, conduction abnormalities, ventricular arrhythmia, heart failure, valvular abnormalities, and thromboembolism. So, we are emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis and treatment of EBV to prevent mortality. This case study represents a rare case of mortality secondary to EBV infection with resultant DCM and congestive heart failure (CHF).
