Abstract

On the assumption of an immunologic background of chronic myocarditis after infection with Coxsackie B3 viruses, mice were treated with prednisolone or cyclophosphamide, starting 18 days after infection, for periods of three months. The favorable therapeutic effect indicates that chronic myocarditis is an immunologic disease.
