Abstract
|
|
|
|
Although non-ischemic diseases of the myocardium are commonly complicated by cerebral embolism, those are mostly asso-ciated with chronic dilated cardiomyopathy or combined with endocardiopathy. Viral myocarditis is usually benign, and despite the sudden of myocardial infarct-like symptom, most patients improved significantly or recovered fully. We report an extre-mely rare case of a young woman with multiple cerebral infarctions in the course of viral myocarditis. (Korean J Stroke 2008; 10:55-57)
