Abstract

We present here the case of development of dilated cardiomyopathy in a patient with HIV infection. The results of dynamic monitoring and treatment (cardiotropic and antiretroviral therapy) for 4 years are described. We also discuss literature data on the frequency of dilated cardiomyopathy development in HIV infection, on key aspects of its pathogenesis, specific features of the course, and approaches to therapy.
