Abstract

We present a patient with acute heart failure and new onset atrial fibrillation secondary to giant cell myocarditis with lone atrial involvement. The diagnosis was managed with cardiac magnetic resonance and confirmed by interventionally guided biopsy. In the future, diagnosis could be managed noninvasively for this rare entity as the gold standard. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.), Graphical abstract

Abstract

We report a case of giant cell myocarditis in a 76-year-old patient managed with combined immunosuppression and biventricular intravascular microaxial blood pumps. This case highlights a feasible approach for managing such patients who are not candidates for transplantation or durable ventricular assist devices.
