immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) were studied with an emphasis on the
heart. Thirty-two patients showed pathologic changes. The pathologic
findings included infection by Histoplasma capsulatum, Toxoplasma
gondii, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, cytomegalovirus. Cryptococcus
neoformans, and atypical mycobacteria. Noninfectious pathologic findings
included nonspecific myocarditis, focal necrosis, focal fibrosis, and
acute subendocardial infarction.
