[Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and viral, idiopathic myopericarditis].
Among 64 patients followed up for 3 to 24 years after acute viral or idiopathic myopericarditis 10 patients were found to have hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. At echo-CG they had asymmetric hypertrophy of the septum. Manifestations of acute myopericarditis, results of laboratory and functional investigations are presented. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy runs asymptomatically or with few symptoms. The relations between cardiomyopathy and viral infection are discussed.
