Abstract

First descriptions about cardiovascular manifestations (mostly myocarditis and endocarditis) in inflammatory rheumatic diseases were dated at the end of the 19(th) century. Inflammatory rheumatic diseases show an increased cardiovascular manifestation and mortality, but the reasons for this are unknown. This overview presents the current knowledge about cardiovascular manifestations in different inflammatory rheumatic diseases for an efficient differential diagnostic and clarification in the daily practice.
