title: [Heart involvement in rheumatoid arthritis].
abstract: It is reported on the malignant course of a case of rheumatoid arthritis, in which the participation of the heart became the cause of death. Here it is stated that we certainly enlarge our knowledge on the participation of the heart by modern cardiological diagnostics, but therapeutically are not yet able to engage decisively in the fateful course of the systemic rheumatoid basic disease. Therefore, efforts about an early cardiologic diagnosis are at present not yet of therapeutic consequences.
