Description
Rizky Hendiperdana and Ahmad Faisal report the case of a 10-year-old child with rheumatic inflammation of the heart muscle and its outer lining, in a 2024 case report. The child had a lingering fever and a badly weakened heart, pumping at an ejection fraction of 25 percent. The case comes from a region where acute rheumatic fever is common, which pointed the team toward that cause. After one week of corticosteroid treatment, the heart's pumping function had recovered.
