RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Since the onset of widespread COVID-19 vaccination, increased incidence of COVID-19 vaccine-associated myocarditis (VA-myocarditis) has been noted, particularly in male adolescents. METHODS: Patients <18 years with suspected myocarditis following COVID-19 vaccination within 21 days were enrolled in the PedMYCVAC cohort, a substudy within the prospective multicenter registry for pediatric myocarditis "MYKKE." Clinical data at initial admission, 3- and 9-months follow-up were monitored and compared to pediatric patients with confirmed non-vaccine-associated myocarditis (NVA-myocarditis) adjusting for various baseline characteristics. RESULTS: From July 2021 to December 2022, 56 patients with VA-myocarditis across 15 centers were enrolled (median age 16.3 years, 91% male). Initially, 11 patients (20%) had mildly reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF; 45%-54%). No incidents of severe heart failure, transplantation or death were observed. Of 49 patients at 3-months follow-up (median (IQR) 94 (63-118) days), residual symptoms were registered in 14 patients (29%), most commonly atypical intermittent chest pain and fatigue. Diagnostic abnormalities remained in 23 patients (47%). Of 21 patients at 9-months follow-up (259 (218-319) days), all were free of symptoms and diagnostic abnormalities remained in 9 patients (43%). These residuals were mostly residual late gadolinium enhancement in magnetic resonance imaging. Patients with NVA-myocarditis (n=108) more often had symptoms of heart failure (P = .003), arrhythmias (P = .031), left ventricular dilatation (P = .045), lower LVEF (P < .001) and major cardiac adverse events (P = .102). CONCLUSIONS: Course of COVID-19 vaccine-associated myocarditis in pediatric patients seems to be mild and differs from non-vaccine-associated myocarditis. Due to a considerable number of residual symptoms and diagnostic abnormalities at follow-up, further studies are needed to define its long-term implications.
