| Popis: | A case is presented in which marked eosinophilia was associated with cardiomegaly, apical holosystolic murmur, atrial fibrillation and congestive heart failure. Loeffler's parietal fibroplastic endocarditis with blood eosinophilia was strongly suspected and the diagnosis was confirmed by endomyocardial biopsy performed antemortem. There was no abnormality of Philadelphia chromosome. A high serum level of vitamin B12 was noted. |
