Outcomes of COVID-19-Associated Acute Myocarditis

The article presents the discussion on COVID-19-associated acute myocarditis without concomitant pneumonia. Topics include definite AM criteria containing endomyocardial biopsy or autopsypositive or elevated cardiac biomarkers and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings consistent with myocarditis;and favoring an immune response mechanism for AM in most rather than direct viral effects.
