Rheumatic carditis is common and readily recognized, as a rule. Myocarditis of viral, rickettsial, granulomatous or nonspecific etiology is less frequent clinically, and may be overlooked. Improved laboratory technics within the last decade have provided more accurate identification of virus diseases, and thereby made possible the detection of specific types of pericarditis and myocarditis.MYOCARDITISJean Corvisart had sufficient vision to describe accurately the natural history of myocarditis when, in 1812, he wrote concerning acute carditis: "Hence this inflammation almost always terminates fatally;...Bibliography1.
