Myocarditis is a rare adverse event of vaccination. Recently, mRNA vaccines for COVID-19 have been reported to correlate with myocarditis, specifically in adolescents and young men. We report a rare case of a 50-year-old man who presented with symptoms of myocardial infarction 3 days after the second dose of vaccination for COVID-19. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging revealed acute myopericarditis. Clinicians should be aware of that rare side effect of mRNA vaccines for COVID-19 that can affect not only younger recipients but also middle-aged patients presenting with symptoms mimicking acute coronary syndrome.
心肌炎是一种罕见的疫苗接种不良事件。最近,有报道称新冠病毒mRNA疫苗与心肌炎有关,特别是在青少年和年轻男性中。我们报告了一例罕见病例,一名50岁男性在接种第二剂新冠病毒疫苗3天后出现心肌梗死症状。心脏磁共振成像显示为急性心肌心包炎。临床医生应意识到新冠病毒mRNA疫苗的这种罕见副作用,它不仅会影响年轻接种者,还会影响表现出类似急性冠状动脉综合征症状的中年患者。
