ABSTRACT
Giant cell myocarditis (GCM) is a rare but fatal disease that can lead to cardiac failure. Survival with a cardiac standstill requires mechanical circulatory support or a biventricular assist device (BiVAD) and prolonged survival is extremely rare. Drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome (DIHS) is a severe cutaneous adverse reaction. Some cases of DIHS are reportedly associated with the onset of GCM. We present a case of a 28-year-old woman who developed GCM during steroid tapering after DIHS. She went into continuous cardiac standstill but survived for 74 days under BiVAD support. Our case is noteworthy because the histopathologic specimens obtained on three occasions contributed to the diagnosis of this particular condition over time. We also reviewed previous literature on concomitant cases of GCM and DIHS. We found that two are potentially associated and most cases of GCM occur within 3 months of DIHS during steroid tapering.
