The work is based on the analysis of 206 patients with myocarditis of whom 168 had infectious allergic myocarditis and 38 had idiopathic myocarditis. A wide variety of clinical laboratory and instrumental methods of examination was used and intravital puncture biopsy of the myocardium was conducted. The article discusses the criteria of differential diagnosis which make it possible to distinguish the form of myocarditis from a large group of cardiovascular diseases following a similar course, i.e. primary rheumatic carditis, ischemic heart disease, valvular diseases, pericarditis and others. |
