Cardiac involvement during Legionnaires' disease has been rarely described; few cases of myocarditis, pericarditis and endocarditis were reported. We describe a case of myocarditis associated to pneumonia, with high antibody title suggesting a disease due to Legionella pneumophila. The patient had severe myocardial damage, with overt heart failure and important ECG and Doppler-echocardiographic abnormalities, without associated multiorgan involvement.
军团病期间的心脏受累情况鲜有描述；仅报告了少数几例心肌炎、心包炎和心内膜炎病例。我们描述了一例与肺炎相关的心肌炎病例，其抗体滴度较高，提示为嗜肺军团菌所致疾病。该患者有严重的心肌损伤，伴有明显的心衰以及重要的心电图和多普勒超声心动图异常，且无多器官受累。
