Abstract

A 15-year-old male presented with acute chest pain and was diagnosed with myopericarditis due to acute Q fever, detected by cell-free DNA method. Despite taking a 2-week course of doxycycline, myopericarditis recurred after 6 months. In the absence of an alternative diagnosis, he began treatment for possible chronic Q fever with doxycycline and hydroxychloroquine and has not had further recurrence.
