First Case of Acute Myocarditis Caused by Metapneumovirus in an Immunocompromised 14-year-old Girl
INDIAN JOURNAL OF CRITICAL CARE MEDICINE(2022)
摘要
Background: Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is a paramyxovirus, well known as a causative agent of respiratory tract infections. Non-respiratory manifestations, including cardiac impairments, remain rare. Only two cases of myocarditis caused by hMPV have been described in adults. Case description: We present the case of a 14-year-old female suffering from Burkitt leukemia and diagnosed with severe myocarditis caused by hMPV, based on results from real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT- PCR) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). She was successfully treated by venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and intravenous immunoglobulins. She was discharged from pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) 3 weeks later. Conclusion: This is the first pediatric case of hMPV myocarditis requiring venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
