Abstract

Giant cell myocarditis is a rare condition, the cardiac magnetic resonance imaging findings of which have not been previously described. The disease usually occurs in young previously healthy people and is typified by rapidly progressive cardiac dysfunction, often requiring cardiac transplantation. A case of giant cell myocarditis is presented, with associated pathologic and imaging findings.
