【 摘 要 】

Acute bacterial prostatitis is a common genitourinary infection affecting males. Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a leading uropathogen implicated in cases of acute bacterial prostatitis, but is not attributed as a common cause of acute myocarditis. This article reports on an unusual case of concurrent myocarditis in a young man with E. coli-related prostatitis and urinary sepsis.
