Abstract

The paper describes a rare clinical case involving primary cardiomyopathy (noncompaction of the left ventricular myocardium (NCLVM), infectious myocarditis, and, possibly, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Objective, laboratory instrumental, invasive examination (coronarography with right ventricular endomyocardial biopsy) of the patient and histological study of his heart biopsy revealed acute infectious myocarditis concurrent with NCLVM and, possibly, HCM. The detection of a rare abnormality as NCLVM necessitates a meticulous additional examination to identify other primary cardiomyopathies (including HCM).

Клинический случай диагностики некомпактного миокарда левого желудочка у больного инфекционным миокардитом. - Аннотация. В статье описан редкий клинический случай, сочетающий первичную кардиомиопатию (некомпактный миокард левого желудочка - НМЛЖ), инфекционный миокардит и, возможно, гипертрофическую кардиомиопатию (ГКМП). При объективном, лабораторно-инструментальном, инвазивном обследовании больного (коронарография с эндомиокардиальной биопсией правого желудочка), а также гистологическом изучении биоптата сердца выявлено сочетание острого инфекционного миокардита с НМЛЖ и, возможно, ГКМП. Выявление редкой патологии в виде НМЛЖ, обусловливает необходимость тщательного дополнительного обследования больного для выявления иных первичных кардиомиопатий (в том числе ГКМП).
