Specialty	Cardiology

Myopericarditis is a combination of both myocarditis and pericarditis appearing in a single individual, namely inflammation of both the pericardium and the heart muscle. It can involve the presence of fluid in the heart.^[1]

Naming[]

When ventricular function is normal, the term myopericarditis is used. Cases with impaired function are labeled perimyocarditis,^[2] though the two terms are often used interchangeably. Both will be reflected on an ECG.^{[citation needed]}

In a different naming scheme, inflammation that is predominantly pericarditis with some myocardial involvement is called myopericarditis, while predominant myocarditis with some pericardial involvement is called perimyocarditis.^[3]

Triggers[]

The appearance of myopericarditis is associated with infections such as acute tonsillitis, pneumonia, and gastroenteritis.^[3]

The ACAM2000 smallpox vaccine has been known to cause myopericarditis in some people.^[4]^[5]
