    Document: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, responsible for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), is a pandemic that has taken the world by storm. We present the only contemporary reported case of COVID-19 myocarditis leading to recovery with utilization of biventricular Impella (Abiomed, Danvers, MA, USA) for temporary mechanical circulatory support. A 35-year-old female with systemic sclerosis who was found to have five days of generalized malaise associated with fevers and cough. She tested positive for COVID-19 via nasal polymerase chain reaction. Cardiac enzymes were found elevated on admission. Invasive hemodynamics assessment was significant for elevated right and left-sided filling pressures, along with calculated cardiac index of 1.3 L/min/m(2). Decision was made to place right and left-sided ventricular support with percutaneous Impella for mechanical circulatory support. She was started on intravenous immunoglobulin for suspected COVID-19 myocarditis along with remdesivir and solumedrol. After two weeks of continuous temporary mechanical circulatory support, the patient’s hemodynamics improved and she was discharged. Repeat echocardiogram demonstrated normalization of left ventricular function.
