Abstract
Here it is covered of a rare case that a child died from eosinophilic myocarditis complicated with drowning. Eosinophilic myocarditis is a myocardial inflammation characterized by eosinophil infiltration with myocardial necrosis and endomyocardial fibrosis, accounting for about 0.1% of the cases among a cohort of patients biopsied for suspected myocarditis. The disease symptoms are same and most of them are similar with “common cold”, yet the severe patients may lead to sudden cardiac death. When forensic identification to be performed about such a disease involved with drowning, the implementation should be taken into the aspects of systematic autopsy, histopathological examination, case investigations and medical-record review along with the essential diatom test to find out the death cause, thereby leaving the only correct analysis to be made.
