TI  - Fatal case of West Nile encephalitis associated with acute anteroseptal ST 
      elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI): a case report.
PG  - 51-53
AB  - Cardiac involvement has rarely been reported in West Nile (WNV) infection. We 
      report a fatal case of WNV encephalitis associated with an acute anteroseptal ST 
      elevation myocardial infarction. The patient was hospitalized with a fever, 
      headache, nausea and vomiting. The physical examination revealed positive 
      meningeal signs and an altered level of consciousness. High levels of cardiac 
      enzymes (creatine phosphokinase/MB fraction, lactate dehydrogenase, myoglobin and 
      cardiac troponin I) and ST elevation on electrocardiogram were found. Both CSF 
      and urine samples were positive for WNV RNA. This case highlights the need of 
      awareness of the possibility of a WNV-related myocardial infection, including 
      myocardial infarction.
