“…This is the first report of fulminant myocarditis and CHB which was initially presented by severe systolic dysfunction and tachyarrhythmia, in a patient who had recovered from covid-19. Also, most of them had an underlying inflammatory disease that was reactivated by COVID-19 and triggered the cytokine storm [8][9][10]; however, our subject did not have any underlying comorbidity.…”

“…There are few case reports of patients with COVID-19 who developed CHB [8][9][10]; nevertheless, our case has different novel aspects. This is the first report of fulminant myocarditis and CHB which was initially presented by severe systolic dysfunction and tachyarrhythmia, in a patient who had recovered from covid-19.…”

“…[2,7] During bradycardic episodes, patients usually had normal cardiac biomarkers, normal EKG, and echocardiogram. [8][9][10][11][12] Fortunately, most of symptoms did not persist after patients recovered from COVID-19 infection. [6]…”

“…The normal cardiac biomarkers values commonly found in COVID-19 patients experiencing bradycardia favor the hypothesis that the virus causes bradycardia through other pathways rather than direct cardiac cell destruction. [6,8,10,12,14] The arrhythmogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 remains controversial.…”

SARS-CoV-2, also known as COVID-19, was first identified in Wuhan, China. Symptoms of COVID-19 are fevers, dry cough and less commonly gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms such as diarrhea that occur in 2 to 14 days of exposure. Infection with COVID-19 leads to hospitalizations due to respiratory compromise. Secondary manifestations of this virus should warrant further investigation since little is known about COVID-19 and its role in the cardiac circuit. We present a patient with COVID-19 who developed transient third-degree AV block initially hospitalized for septic shock. The patient presented with mild symptoms and the transient nature of the complete heart block could be a matter of low viral load in his circulation. He recovered from COVID-19 with no long-term cardiac sequelae. The long-term effects of COVID-19 are still unknown; this case presents the cardiac manifestations of the virus.
