    Author: Kübler W, Zebe H, Mäurer W, Mehmel H, Zekl G.

    Abstract:
    Congestive cardiomyopathy principally affects adolescent young men. The prognosis is very serious, mortality is almost 50%. Symptomatology, clinical and radiological findings are chiefly determined by signs of cardiac insufficiency. The ECG almost always shows a pathological but not a pathognomonic finding. If ventricular dilation is marked, left ventricular function is partly extremely limited. As causes of congestive cardiomyopathy, inflammatory changes, autoimmunological processes and metabolic disorders are discussed.
