pubmed:abstractText |
Idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is, together with ischemic heart disease, the major cause of end-stage heart failure leading to heart transplantation. However, an unknown percentage of patients with this diagnosis has inflammatory foci found in the histopathological study of the explanted heart. This fact suggests an undetected process of acute myocarditis as the cause of cardiac dysfunction.
