Late Gadolinium Enhancement on Cardiac MRI Suggests a Possible Two‐Hit Hypothesis for Suspected Commotio Cordis as the Cause of Pediatric Cardiac Arrest

open access: yesCase Reports in Critical Care, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
In the United States, there are approximately 20,000 pediatric cardiac arrests per year. The causes of pediatric cardiac arrest include both cardiac and noncardiac, with noncardiac etiologies predominating in 1‐ to 18‐year‐olds. We discuss here a case of a 15‐year‐old male who presented after an out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest, which occurred after a ...
