Abstract (2. Language): 
The viral myocarditis is the most common cause of heart failure in previously healthy children. We herewith present an adolescent girl admitted with acute myocarditis findings, heart failure and arrhythmia. Cardiological studies verified the diagnosis and patient received intravenous immuneglobuline solution in addition to supportive therapy. Her clinical picture was finally attributed to unicteric hepatitis A virus infection.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Sağlıklı çocuklarda kalp yetersizliğinin en sık sebebi viral miyokarditlerdir. Yazımızda kliniğimize kalp yetersizliği, aritmi bulguları ve akut miyokardit tablosu ile başvuran bir adölesan kız vakayı sunmak istedik. Kardiyolojik testlerin akut miyokardit tanısını doğrulaması üzerine, hastaya destekleyici tedaviye ek olarak intravenöz immunglobulin uygulandı. İleri tetkiklerde hastanın klinik tablosunun altında sarılık gelişmeden gerçekleşen hepatit A enfeksiyonu olduğu tespit edildi.
