Comment:

Idiopathic giant cell myocarditis is characterized by myocardial inflammation and necrosis leading to rapidly progressive heart failure. In addition to genetic factors autoimmune responses or infections may play a role in the pathogenesis of the disease. Diagnosis should be confirmed by endomyocardial biopsy. (PMID:25895034)
