摘要
This investigation was carried out to compare the clinical course of patients with chronic Chagas' heart disease with that of patients with dilated cardiomyopathy. A total of 125 patients (75 chagasic and 50 nonchagasic) prospectively followed up at the Cardiomyopathy clinic of Santa Casa Hospital from January 1990 to June 1993 entered the study. Patients underwent clinical history, physical examination, serological tests, resting electrocardiogram, chest X-ray and two-dimensional echocardiography. In nonchagasic patients, hypertensive cardiomyopathy was found in 17 of 50 (34%) patients, idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy in 16 (32%), the association of hypertension and coronary artery disease in 12 (24%) and ischemic cardiomyopathy in two (4%). Twenty-one (23%) chagasic and three (6%) nonchagasic patients died during the study period (P = 0.02). Sudden cardiac death occurred in eight (38%) chagasic patients, pump failure death was detected in 10 (47%) and the mode of death could not be determined in three (14%) patients with chronic Chagas' heart disease. Thus, patients with chronic Chagas' heart disease have a clinical course worse than that of patients with nonchagasic dilated cardiomyopathy. This bet may be ascribed to the electrocardiographic and morphological peculiarities usually found in chronic Chagas' heart disease. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.
