Abstract
It has now been shown that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causing a new COVID-19 infection, can penetrate the myocardium and have both direct damaging and toxic effects. The main cardiac manifestations of this disease are fulminant myocarditis, atrial and ventricular arrhythmias, and heart failure. Cardiac arrhythmias are common complication not only in adult patients, but also in children. In this paper, we present a clinical case of the young female patient who successfully underwent operation because of a submitral (diffuse-generalized) form of HCM, with a long event-free postoperative course, and with the rapid cardiac dysfunction, syncopes and cardiac arrhythmias after COVID-19 infection. Syncopes were caused by self-terminating short runs of ventricular tachycardia that did not trigger ICD shock. After the medical treatment of myocarditis, she has a clinical improvement and further favorable postoperative period.
期刊介绍:
Journal “Clinical and Experimental Surgery. Petrovsky journal” – a broad-based journal on surgery established to merge all the surgical specialties into the integrated intellectual space provided with up to date systems of communication and information. Following this aim the on-line support of the journal involves extended version and multimedia materials. As soon as the modern surgery has exceeded the scopes of the application-oriented science, the editorial board will encourage the researches of academic importance and facilitate creation of the fresh lines of research as well as the translation of the research results into the practical surgery. Broad-based profile of the journal and multidisciplinary approach to the arrangement of the research materials are to create a start point for the discussions activating the development of the innovative, joint cross-sectoral and international projects. Thematic scope of the journal: Cardiac and vascular surgery Thoracic surgery Abdominal surgery Transplantation and artificial organs Endoscopic surgery Reconstructive and microvascular surgery Physiology, physiopathology, diagnostics Fundamental research and interdisciplinary technologies Education Bioethics History of surgery.
