Key result
COVID-19 mRNA vaccination was associated with a rare case of mild acute myocarditis confirmed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, endomyocardial biopsy, and troponin levels.
Why the study?
Post-vaccination myocarditis has emerged as a rare side effect of COVID-19 vaccination, but its pathogenesis remains unclear and warrants further investigation.
