Abstract
Patients with EGPA in clinical remission showed a high incidence of cardiac involvement. Markedly increased eosinophil relates to CCI. Pericarditis and myocarditis are the most common forms of cardiac involvement. There is a propensity of apical involvement in WMA and the tendency to develop apical aneurysm. CMR enables detection of LGE, although in our pts repeatedly segmental akinesia-dyskinesia was not related to LGE presence.I documenti in FLORE sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
