Chagas disease (CD) is generated by Trypanosoma Cruzi. Approximately 8-12 million people are infected in Central and South America and today, with the large migrant populations seen throughout the world, some of these might be present in Europe. The most common cardiac complications of chronic CD are left ventricular dilation and dysfunction, aneurysm, congestive heart failure, thromboembolism, ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. The diagnosis is based on serology to detect immunoglobulin G antibodies to T Cruzi. Chronic chagasic cardiomyopathy is almost always progressive and treatment, despite the lack of strong evidence, is similar to other cardiomyopathies.
