description | During the current pandemic, acute coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) due to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) provokes overwhelming inflammatory response leading to a wide range of clinical presentations including, a rare multisystem inflammatory syndrome and cardiac injury. Not only during the acute phase of the disease but a delayed immunologic response to SARS-CoV-2 infection among people with hyperinflammatory illness several weeks postacute phase of the infection is recently recognized. We report a young adult male who presented with acute myocarditis and heart failure associated with laboratory evidence of hyperinflammatory syndrome 5 weeks after a full recovery from COVID-19 infection. We believe that health-care providers need to be aware and recognize this syndrome as a rare sequela of COVID-19 infection. |
