First Report of Acute Myocarditis Post-Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccination in the Kingdom of Bahrain.

We present a case of a 24-year-old male patient who presented to our institution five days after receiving his first dose of Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine to rule out acute coronary syndrome due to chest pain along with troponin increase and ECG changes. Acute coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection was excluded based on a negative real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test of specimens acquired using nasopharyngeal swabs for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), and all other viral serologies were found to be negative. Coronary angiogram showed normal coronaries, and the presence of late gadolinium enhancement, which is indicative of myocarditis, was identified using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
