Résumé
Background: Acute myocarditis corresponds to an acute inflammation of the myocardium whose origin is most often viral. Several viruses can be incriminated to note the parvovirus B19, the virus herpes of the group 6 and to a lesser degree the virus of the hepatitis C (VHC) [18,19]. Since 2019 and with the discovery of SARS COV2 some cases of myocarditis associated with covid have been noted, this last association is rare and is present in only 5% of cases [8]. The diagnosis of myocarditis is sometimes difficult and can lead to confusion with acute coronary syndrome, especially in cases of ST-segment elevation on the EKG, hence the interest of magnetic resonance imaging, which has made it possible in recent years to reduce the rate of unnecessary coronary angiography, especially in the case of young subjects with no cardiovascular risk factors. in this context we report the case of a 33 year old patient with no cardiovascular risk factors and no medical or surgical antecedents who was admitted to the emergency department for the management of acute chest pain related to acute post-covid myocarditis, the patient was initially admitted to the cardiology intensive care unit where he was put in condition and under analgesic treatment and under therapeutic protocal of covid 19 and under anticoagulation based on low molecular weight heparin at preventive dose with a good clinical evolution he was transferred thereafter to the clinical cardiology then declared outgoing under treatment of covid 19 with an appointment of control in 1 month.
