Silvilairat Medicine A previously healthy 3-year-old boy presented with high-grade fever, dyspnoea, alteration of consciousness, tachycardia and shock. A few erythematous macules and papules were seen on his palms and soles. Echocardiogram showed poor left ventricular contraction. Cardiac enzymes and pro-B-type natriuretic peptide were elevated. Milrinone, low-dose dopamine and intravenous immunoglobulin were administered. The patient recovered after 5 days without cardiac or neurological sequelae. The serological results showed a four-fold rise of enterovirus 71. In children with severe EV71 infection, early recognition of cardiopulmonary involvement and aggressive treatment are crucial to successful management. © 2010 Maney. 2018-09-04T04:50:35Z 2018-09-04T04:50:35Z 2010-09-01 Journal 14653281 02724936 2-s2.0-77956433110 10.1179/146532810X12703902516446 https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?partnerID=HzOxMe3b&scp=77956433110&origin=inward http://cmuir.cmu.ac.th/jspui/handle/6653943832/51040 |
