title: [Myocardial infarction in a patient with congestive cardiomyopathy].
abstract: A rare case of myocardial infarction developing in the course of congestive cardiomyopathy has been reported. The author describes diagnostic difficulties associated with the presence of combined heart diseases. The role of newer diagnostic methods (determination of CK-MB activity, Tl201 scintigraphy) has been pointed to in establishing the correct diagnosis. Marked worsening of the prognosis in congestive cardiomyopathy complicated by the infarction has been noted.
