We describe a 25-year old man in whom segmental myocarditis and pericarditis was diagnosed using two-dimensional echocardiography. Churg-Strauss syndrome was suspected in the presence of asthma and evidence of hypereosinophilia. Early therapy with oral prednisone led to resolution of pericarditis but septal hypokinesia was still present after 4 years. The pathophysiology of segmental myocarditis in the Churg Strauss syndrome is discussed.
