Palabras clave : | Cardiomiopatía Chagásica;Trypanosoma cruzi | Fecha de publicación : | jul-2008 | Editorial : | Elsevier | Journal: | American Heart Journal | Resumen : | Benznidazole is effective for treating acute and chronic (recently acquired) Trypanosoma cruzi infection (Chagas' disease). Recent data indicate that parasite persistence plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of chronic Chagas' cardiomyopathy. However, the efficacy of trypanocidal therapy in preventing clinical complications in patients with preexisting cardiac disease is unknown. |
