Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic, together with its complications and management, has been a significant issue worldwide since March 2020. Concomitant infections in vulnerable patients with preexisting cardiovascular diseases are not uncommon. Sharing information about the diagnostic management and treatment of these comorbidities has a prominent role in unveiling some of this pandemic’s challenges. We herein describe a young adult with a history of implantable cardioverter-defibrillator implantation diagnosed with COVID-19 infection and infective endocarditis.
