Legionella pneumonia complicated by myocarditis and torsades de pointes: A case report and review of literature.
[legionellosis]
Legionella
infection
most
commonly
manifests
as
pneumonia
.
Extrapulmonarylegionellosis
is
rare
,
but
the
clinical
manifestations
are
often
dramatic
.
Myocardialinvolvementis
the
most
common
extrapulmonary
manifestation
of
legionellosis
and
can
result
in
left
ventricular
dysfunction
.
We
report
a
case
of
Legionellapneumopbila-induced
myocarditis
and
acute
left
ventricular
dysfunction
with
subsequent
development
of
torsades
de
pointes
(
TdP
)
in
a
young
adult
with
no
other
risk
factors
.
Early
recognition
of
this
complication
is
paramount
as
timely
initiation
of
appropriate
antibiotics
is
crucial
to
ensure
full
recovery
from
this
form
of
reversible
carditis
.
