Toxin-Mediated Myocarditis From a Brown Recluse Spider Bite

We describe a case of myocarditis associated with a brown recluse spider bite in a 31-year-old man. Cardiac magnetic resonance revealed late gadolinium enhancement in the lateral wall and inferior wall. There was also regional elevation of the myocardial T2 and extracellular volume indicative of myo...
