title: [Problems of idiopathic congestive cardiomyopathy].
abstract: It is reported on the course of an idiopathic congestive cardiomyopathy in a younger man which could be observed during three years. After a longer period free of symptoms acutely appeared the signs of a myocardial failure, in which case disturbances of cardiac rhythm at length caused death. In detail the clinical fingings, pathologo-anatomical changes as well as the differential-diagnostic considerations are discussed, which are important for the demarcation of the other forms of the idiopathic and secondary cardiomyopathies.
