| الوصف: | Introduction. Myocarditis is known to occur in 5–25 % of COVID-19 cases and is associated with increased mortality. According to studies, even a mild course of COVID-19 is associated with a high risk of cardiovascular disease. Possible mechanisms of myocarditis are a combination of direct viral damage to the myocardium and the human immune response to the affected myocardium. Along with acute manifestations, as fulminant myocarditis, COVID-19 may also be associated with an increased risk of long-term cardiovascular complications. Case report and discussion. The article presents a case of myocarditis that developed five weeks after active coronovirus infection in patient I., 47 years old, Ukraine, Kyiv. She described such symptoms as palpitations, shortness of breath, fever, general malaise. According to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the heart: signs of focal myocarditis; according to laboratory tests, an increase in the level of acute phase indicators; according to Holter monitoring of the electrocardiogram (HM ECG) – AV blockade of the II degree (Mobitz II). The patient was prescribed : eplerinone, bisoprolol fumorate, rivaroxaban, trimetazidine. After four months of treatment, the condition of the patient gradually improved. Positive dynamics was revealed according to HM ECG and MRI of the heart. Thus, the patient was diagnosed with long-term consequences of coronavirus infection – focal myocarditis. Conclusions. Coronavirus infection causes myocardial damage with the development of myocarditis. Myocarditis can develop both in the acute period of the disease and in the long term. Scientists and physicians should pay attention to the possible consequences of COVID-19 from the first contact with the patient, and conduct long-term follow-up of patients in the long term. |
