Myocardial involvement in acromegaly.

P A van den Heuvel, H R Elbers, H W Plokker, A V Bruschke.   

Abstract

We recently encountered a case of an acromegalic patient with congestive heart failure and secondary cardiomyopathy. Cardiac biopsies were available in addition to autopsy material. This enabled us to perform electron microscopical studies which have hitherto not been reported. This may help to clarify the relationship between these two conditions and reveal specific characteristics.
