Abstract
This report describes a case of acute myocarditis in a 2-year-old child. Acute
myocarditis is most commonly secondary to viral infections and, less frequently,
to immune disorders or drug reactions. Among the various viruses, parvovirus
B19 is recognized as one of the main etiological agents.
