... of the myocardium. Methods: In 100 patients (65 men, 44.7 ± 12.5 years old) with “idiopathic” arrhythmias ( n = 20) and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM; n = 80), we performed the following: 71 endomyocardial biopsies (EMB), 13 intraoperative biopsies, 5 studies of explanted hearts, and 11 autopsies with virus...

Rali; Hema Pamulapati; Reza Masoomi; Kamal Gupta Aim: The aim of this study is to report recent trends in the performance of endomyocardial biopsy (EMB) and its in-hospital complications (and their predictors) in the United States (US). Method: We analyzed...

... and hemodynamic studies suggested the presence of a progressive infiltrative cardiomyopathy that was later confirmed by endomyocardial biopsy. Amyloid deposits were found in both intra- and extra-myofiber location and thought to be related to primary involvement of the heart. Norepinephrine content of myocardial...

...Karen Lambert; Debra Isaac; Robert Hendel The diagnosis of myocarditis presents a diagnostic challenge due to its varied clinical presentation. In addition, criteria for myocarditis are varied. At present, the confirmation of myocarditis depends on an endomyocardial biopsy demonstrating myocardial...

...H.R. Figuila; A. Bardosi; K. Dechant; H.
