A Young Lady With Myopericarditis: An Unusual Presentation of COVID-19 Infection.

Fever, sore throat, cough, and shortness of breath are the characteristic clinical manifestations of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). As the epidemic spreads, it is evident that the infection can affect not only the lungs but also other organs. By attaching to the angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 receptor (ACE-2), the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) induces lung injury. SARS-CoV-2 can also cause damage to the heart and blood vessels as these organs have abundant ACE-2 receptors. Here, we present a 28-year-old lady with shortness of breath, chest pain, low blood pressure, and a pulse rate that fluctuates widely. She had SARS-CoV-2-induced myopericarditis after further testing. Initially, we treated her with high-dose prednisolone and other supportive medications. Then, we also added colchicine and ibuprofen due to the initial poor response, and the result was satisfying after two weeks of treatment.
