Electrical storm in the inflamed heart: ventricular tachycardia due to myocarditis

Electrical storm during the acute inflammatory phase caused by myocarditis may be resistant to antiarrhythmic therapy. Cardiac imaging including magnetic resonance tomography, positron emission tomography, and endomyocardial biopsy are crucial to guide potential therapeutic options. Optimal manageme...
