바이러스성 심근염 환자에서 발현한 다발성 뇌경색 1예

Abstract

Although non-ischemic diseases of the myocardium are commonly complicated by cerebral embolism, those are mostly asso-ciated with chronic dilated cardiomyopathy or combined with endocardiopathy. Viral myocarditis is usually benign, and despite the sudden of myocardial infarct-like symptom, most patients improved significantly or recovered fully. We report an extre-mely rare case of a young woman with multiple cerebral infarctions in the course of viral myocarditis.
