Echocardiographic follow-up of Chlamydia psittaci myocarditis

A F Schinkel et al. Chest. 2000 Apr.

Abstract

Chlamydia psittaci myocarditis has been infrequently reported. A case of serologically confirmed C psittaci myocarditis with dilated left ventricle and severely impaired left ventricular function is described. Serial echocardiograms demonstrated complete recovery after therapy. An early diagnosis has important prognostic implications.
