Abstract
Despite antibiotic therapy, some patients with uncomplicated Whipple's disease die suddenly and inexplicably. We describe one such patient who died following unexplained cardiorespiratory arrest and was found to have chronic active myocarditis related to the causative organism. We postulate myocarditis as a cause of sudden death.
摘要
尽管接受了抗生素治疗，一些患有无并发症惠普尔病的患者仍会突然且原因不明地死亡。我们描述了这样一位患者，他在不明原因的心搏呼吸骤停后死亡，尸检发现其患有与致病微生物相关的慢性活动性心肌炎。我们推测心肌炎是导致猝死的原因之一。
