AbstractMyocarditis is an important cause of arrhythmogenic sudden cardiac arrest in the young. A strong index of suspicion is required as not only can arrhythmias be the only clinical manifestation but also because these patients can have normal cardiac biomarkers, electrocardiographic and echocardiographic findings, and inflammatory markers. Patients with ventricular arrhythmias in the setting of viral myocarditis, especially the ones in whom cardiac MRI findings normalise upon follow-up, tend to do well in the long run and an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator should be avoided in these patients; instead, a wearable defibrillator should be temporarily used as we did in this 7-year-old.
