Published in: European heart journal. Case reports (2023)
This case depicts an example of incessant mRNA vaccine-associated pericarditis, a known complication of the Pfizer-BioNtech mRNA COVID-19 vaccination. There is limited evidence guiding the therapy of mRNA-induced pericarditis especially when recurrent and resistant to simple analgaesia, colchicine, and steroids. Thus, this case represents a potential framework to help future cases of incessant mRNA vaccine-induced pericarditis.
