A 19-year-old male was admitted to our department because of high fever, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. Electrocardiogram (ECG) on admission revealed diffuse ST-T changes which persisted for 5 days. Stool culture grew Shigella sonnei. We conclude that the infection with Shigella sonnei was the cause for these findings which were most probably due to myocarditis. To the best of our knowledge myocarditis as a complication of shigella infestation has never been reported.
