    AbstractThere are numerous case studies describing myocarditis and cardiac events in adults after insect envenomation. To our knowledge, there are no similar cases documented in children. We report a unique case of a 14-year-old adolescent boy who developed acute myocarditis after a bee sting. The pathophysiology involving envenomation and myocarditis remains poorly understood.Copyright © 2019 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc. All rights reserved.
