Summary:The frequency of pericarditis as a complication in COVID‐19 patients without underlying disease is not well known. We report a case of COVID‐19 presenting with pericarditis without myocarditis or severe respiratory symptoms in a middle‐aged woman, who had neither underlying disease nor previous diagnosis of COVID‐19. We need to be aware that COVID‐19 can present with pericarditis without myocarditis or severe respiratory symptoms even in the absence of underlying disease.
