Asymptomatic Salmonella Myocarditis: A Case Report of a Rare Entity.
Curēus 2024 Februrary
Enteric fever typically displays symptoms like high fever, abdominal pain, constipation, and headaches, primarily affecting the digestive system. While it is commonly seen as a gastrointestinal infection, it can also lead to rare but significant cardiovascular issues. There have been only a few reported cases of enteric fever causing heart manifestations. We present a case of a young male with enteric fever-induced myocarditis, which, due to its rarity, can be challenging to diagnose and is essentially a diagnosis of exclusion. Cardiac MRI (CMR) is crucial for diagnosis, supported by ECG, echocardiograms, and troponin levels. The treatment involves standard approaches for cardiomyopathy, including angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, beta-blockers, and diuretics. However, our patient presented as a case of asymptomatic myocarditis and fully recovered with treatment without any long-lasting heart problems. Our study aims to contribute to the limited body of knowledge on heart-related complications of enteric fever, raising awareness among clinicians of such presentations in enteric fever cases.
