ABSTRACT
Myocardial injury has been reported as a complication of COVID-19. Although several mechanisms have been proposed as its cause, they are mostly based on autopsy studies, We report a 49-year-old male with COVID-19-associated myocardial injury presented like fulminant myocarditis. We performed endomyocardial biopsy on day 2 and we confirmed the presence of microthrombosis histologically. He died on day 5 due to cardiogenic shock.
