Myocarditis

Last edited: 4/23/2026

Overview

Myocarditis is an inflammatory condition of the myocardium that can result from various causes including viral infections, autoimmune responses, and adverse reactions to certain medications or immunotherapies. It ranges from asymptomatic to life-threatening, often presenting with cardiac dysfunction and symptoms like chest pain and arrhythmias. 256162656

Diagnosis

  • Clinical Presentation: Fever, chest pain, palpitations, and signs of heart failure.
  • Laboratory Tests: Elevated cardiac biomarkers (troponin, BNP), inflammatory markers (CRP, ESR).
  • Imaging: Echocardiography for wall motion abnormalities, MRI for myocardial edema and fibrosis.
  • Electrophysiology: ECG may show nonspecific ST-T changes or arrhythmias.
  • Histopathology: Biopsy confirms diagnosis but is invasive; used selectively.
  • Lake Louise Criteria: Updated criteria improve diagnostic accuracy in acute myocarditis 2136.
  • Prognostic Tools: Extracellular volume fraction by MRI for myocardial fibrosis in pediatric patients 30.
  • Management

  • Supportive Care: Fluid management, inotropic support, mechanical ventilation if needed.
  • Immunosuppressive Therapy: Corticosteroids, intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG), or anti-inflammatory agents like infliximab 81828.
  • Specific Treatments: For immune checkpoint inhibitor-associated myocarditis, management may include corticosteroids and discontinuation of ICIs 1637.
  • Mechanical Support: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for severe cases 11022.
  • Monitoring: Regular echocardiograms, cardiac MRI, and biomarker monitoring.
  • Targeted Therapies: Emerging strategies include modulation of inflammatory pathways (e.g., targeting PDL1, NRF2 signaling) 204955.
  • Special Populations

  • Pediatrics: Kawasaki disease often leads to myocarditis; echocardiography crucial for monitoring coronary artery abnormalities 571117243948.
  • Pregnancy: Patients with prior Kawasaki disease require careful monitoring due to potential coronary artery complications 26.
  • Comorbidities: Presence of autoimmune conditions may influence myocarditis etiology and management 64.
  • Key Recommendations

  • Use updated Lake Louise criteria for diagnosing acute myocarditis to improve diagnostic accuracy (Evidence: Moderate 2136).
  • Initiate supportive care measures including mechanical circulatory support like ECMO for severe cases (Evidence: Weak 11022).
  • Consider immunosuppressive therapy such as IVIG for suspected immune-mediated myocarditis (Evidence: Moderate 818).
  • Monitor pediatric patients with Kawasaki disease closely for coronary artery abnormalities using echocardiography (Evidence: Moderate 571117243948).
  • Discontinue immune checkpoint inhibitors and manage with corticosteroids in cases of ICI-associated myocarditis (Evidence: Moderate 1637).
