Loeffler’s Endocarditis in a patient with a new diagnosed Churg-Strauss syndrome(CSS):A Case Report

open access: yesCaspian Journal of Internal Medicine, 2021
Background: Loeffler’s endocarditis is a rare disease, caused by endocardial involvement of esosinophils, which damages the heart and leads to endomyocardial fibrosis with consequent restrictive cardiomyopathy, mural thrombi or valvular dysfunction.

Endomyocardial biopsy. [PDF]

open access: yesHeart, 1978
Cardiac biopsies are being undertaken with increased frequency in recent years. The present review concentrates mainly upon the role of this technique in the more accurate classification and diagnosis of the cardiomyopathies. In addition the quality of biopsy material and the degree to which it represents the overall cardiac pathological changes are ...
