Overview
As the disease is often treated medically, surgical interventions are not required.
Surgery
Surgical interventions have not been indicated for patients affected by Bornholm disease. The presence of complications may require surgical intervention but are also often treated medically.
- Acute pericarditis: treating the underlying cause (medical treatment is often sufficient) [1]
- Myocarditis: Diuretics, ACE inhibitors, and Beta blockers. Heart transplant is considered in cases of no recovery [2]
- Disseminated Intravascular Coagulopathy (DIC): Heparin, Blood transfusions [3]
- Respiratory distress: increased oxygen delivery as well as avoiding any further pulmonary injury [4]
