Abstract EN
Severe fulminant myocarditis causing cardiogenic shock can be a rapidly progressing, life threatening condition.
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a very rare infectious culprit infrequently described in medical literature as a cause of myocarditis, particularly in adults.
We present a case of acute fulminant myocarditis in a patient with PCR positive RSV infection requiring venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO).
