Salmonella Typhimurium Myocarditis in Two Previously Healthy Children.

Myocarditis represents an inflammation affecting the heart muscles, a condition relatively uncommon among children. Its diagnosis poses challenges due to the diverse range of its non-specific symptoms. Non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) species are known as rare but noteworthy contributors to myocarditis, especially among immunocompetent young patients. We present two cases of NTS myocarditis in previously healthy children, in an attempt to shed light on the epidemiology, diagnostic methods, and prognosis, aiming to offer a greater understanding of this rare condition.
