Abstract:
Malaria remains one of the most prevalent infectious diseases globally. Despite targets set out by the WHO in 2015, there has been a rise in the number of cases since 2019 as an indirect effect of the COVID-19 pandemic.Cardiac complications are very rarely witnessed with severe malaria. Of the cardiac sequelae, myocarditis is one of the most frequently observed with a handful of case reports in the literature. We report a case of a man in his 50s who developed myocarditis while being managed for severe Plasmodium falciparum malaria in an intensive care unit in the UK and review the literature relevant to this case. This is the second reported case of this condition in the UK.
摘要:
疟疾仍然是全球最普遍的传染病之一。尽管世卫组织在2015年设定了目标,但由于COVID-19大流行的间接影响,自2019年以来,病例数量有所增加。严重的疟疾很少见到心脏并发症。在心脏后遗症中,心肌炎是最常见的病例之一,文献中有少数病例报道。我们报告了一名50多岁的男子在英国重症监护病房接受严重恶性疟原虫疟疾治疗时患上心肌炎的病例,并回顾了与该病例相关的文献。这是英国第二例报告的这种情况。
