Introduction. Eosinophilic myocarditis is an infiltrative disease that affects
the myocardium leading to various presentations. It can be precipitated by
medications, helminthiasis, or hypereosinophilic syndrome. Case. We present the
case of a young, male patient who presented with palpitations and dyspnea and was
found to have heart failure with reduced ejection fracture of 12%. His past
medical history was significant for recent lung problem treated with steroids.
Based on his history and laboratory findings, he was started on intravenous
steroids for treatment of eosinophilic myocarditis. Within 3 days, his ejection
fracture improved to 35%. Conclusion. Given the nonspecific clinical
presentations, mimicking other diseases, high index of suspicion is warranted to
diagnose eosinophilic myocarditis. This is crucial as early detection and
treatment with steroids can lead to a dramatic response.
