Abstract
Abstract Influenza infection most commonly affects the upper and lower respiratory tracts, but can involve extra-pulmonary sites including the myocardium. We report on a case of myocarditis due to documented 2009 pandemic H1N1 influenza in a previously healthy adult, and review the literature on influenza myocarditis.
