Comportamento do peso do coração e do corpo em chagásicos crônicos com e sem "megas"

Abstract: IN TR O D U Ç Ã O0 comprometimento cardíaco em chagási cos com "megas" foi alvo até o momento de uma série de estudos cl micos, nos quais res salta o fato de que a insuficiência cardíaca congestiva é concorrência pouco freqüente nesses pacientes7,9 ,10,11,13 ,14. De outro la do, os estudos anatômicos dos corações de portadores de megacolon ou megaesôfago são escassos. Ramos e O r ia 12n, descreve ram principalmente alterações do sistema nervoso autônomo intracardíaco em 6 casos de megaesôfago.Pitella. e Cols8 … Show more

“…Cardiac weight in the CHD elderly (385±141.1g) was lower than that found in literature, where the cardiac weight of nonelderly individuals varies from 415 ± 136.8 g to 568.49 ± 133.79 g 17,20,23 . Likewise, the median HW/BW ratio in the CHD elderly (0.71% [0.5-1.42%]) was less than the average found in the literature for non-elderly individuals (1.1 ± 0.22%) 17 .…”

“…Likewise, the median HW/BW ratio in the CHD elderly (0.71% [0.5-1.42%]) was less than the average found in the literature for non-elderly individuals (1.1 ± 0.22%) 17 . Cardiac weight in the CHD elderly lower than that described in the literature shows that although heart enlargement also occurs in the elderly, it seems to be less marked, probably due to less severe myocardial lesions during aging.…”

“…Data from the literature prove that in chronic Chagas' disease, independent of the anatomical-clinical form of the disease, the weight of the heart is greater 20,21 and arrhythmia more frequent, 22-24 compared with controls. These events may indicate varying degrees to which myocardial function is compromised, with possible systemic hemodynamic repercussions.…”
