Watch a video case report: metastatic myocardial abscess
Accompanying one of Journal of Medical Case Reports' latest case reports is a mini-video. Iqbal et al. report a case of a 29-year-old intravenous drug user presenting with a 2-week history of fever, malaise and myalgia.
After detection of sever tricuspid regurgitation, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI) revealed a 4.5cm diameter left ventricular posterior wall abscess contained by only a 2mm thin layer of myocardium
.
Watch this short clip to see the CMRI, and read the full case report for more details.
