Isolated atrial myopathy and persistent severe cardiac conduction disorders presented as juvenile stroke: A case report

Abstract

Myocarditis can be complicated by various conduction abnormalities, including supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias. It is rare to see conduction disorders as the first and only presentation of myocarditis, which may be reversible or persistent after the acute phase of myocarditis. Here, we present a case of probable myocarditis with preserved right and left ventricular function, isolated atrial cardiomyopathy, and severe conductive disturbances, including sinoatrial node dysfunction, atrial flutter, interatrial block, transient loss of atrial electromechanical activity and persistent complete atrioventricular block in a young woman presented with acute stroke.
