The development of myocarditis after receiving messenger RNA vaccination against COVID-19 is well documented, particularly in adolescent and young adult males. We report a case of vaccine-associated myocarditis in adolescent brothers following their second dose of the BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine (Pfizer-BioNTech, Mainz, Germany). This report illustrates the need to better understand the mechanisms leading to myocarditis after mRNA vaccination.
接种针对2019冠状病毒病的信使核糖核酸疫苗后发生心肌炎已有充分记录,尤其是在青少年和年轻成年男性中。我们报告了一例青少年兄弟在接种第二剂BNT162b2信使核糖核酸疫苗(辉瑞-生物科技公司,德国美因茨)后发生的疫苗相关性心肌炎病例。本报告表明有必要更好地了解信使核糖核酸疫苗接种后导致心肌炎的机制。
