ABSTRACT
Giant cell myocarditis is a rare but often devastating disease affecting young, otherwise healthy individuals. Patients often die of heart failure and ventricular arrhythmia unless cardiac transplantation is performed. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging with or without cardiac biopsy can be helpful in making the correct diagnosis and ensuring that correct timely treatment is administered.
