Abstract
Myocarditis sometimes occurs as a complication of bacterial infection, including enteric infections caused by Salmonella, Shigella and Yersinia. Only a few cases of Campylobacter-associated myocarditis are known. We describe a 47-y-old patient with myopericarditis in association with Campylobacter spp. enteritis, and review similar cases previously described in the English literature.Entities:
