A rare case of mumps-related myocarditis led to a ventricular thrombus and arterial embolization in a child. This highlights uncommon complications of epidemic parotitis, emphasizing the need for vigilance in pediatric cardiac cases.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Cardiology
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Cardiovascular Pathology

Context:

  • Epidemic parotitis (mumps) is a common viral illness.
  • Myocarditis is a rare but known complication of mumps.
  • Congestive heart failure can occur secondary to myocarditis.

Purpose:

  • To report an extremely rare complication of mumps-induced myocarditis.
  • To describe the formation of a left ventricular thrombus during acute myocarditis.
  • To document subsequent arterial embolization from the ventricular thrombus.

Summary:

  • A 6-year-old girl with post-parotitis myocarditis and heart failure developed a left ventricular apical thrombus.
  • The thrombus embolized to the iliac and mesenteric arteries despite appropriate treatment.
