In this article, we aimed to present the case of a 14-year-old girl with AFM who experienced a cardiogenic shock and resistant ventriculartachycardia unresponsive to medical treatment; however, she could be successfully treated with veno-arterial extracorporeal membraneoxygenation and discharged without neurological sequelae from the hospital.
📌 3 Key Takeaways
🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Acute fulminant myocarditis (AFM) is a clinical condition that can lead to sudden onset of rapidly progressing cardiogenic shock with significantarrhythmia and possible cardiac arrest.
📊
Key Findings & Data:Mechanical circulation support has been reported to provide effective cardiac support in patients withAFM.
💡
Conclusion & Impact:In this article, we aimed to present the case of a 14-year-old girl with AFM who experienced a cardiogenic shock and resistant ventriculartachycardia unresponsive to medical treatment; however, she could be successfully treated with veno-arterial extracorporeal membraneoxygenation and discharged without neurological sequelae from the hospital.

Abstract
Acute fulminant myocarditis (AFM) is a clinical condition that can lead to sudden onset of rapidly progressing cardiogenic shock with significantarrhythmia and possible cardiac arrest. Mechanical circulation support has been reported to provide effective cardiac support in patients withAFM. In this article, we aimed to present the case of a 14-year-old girl with AFM who experienced a cardiogenic shock and resistant ventriculartachycardia unresponsive to medical treatment; however, she could be successfully treated with veno-arterial extracorporeal membraneoxygenation and discharged without neurological sequelae from the hospital.
