Abstract
We investigated the occurrence of coronary sinus abnormalities in the indeterminate form of Chagas disease (CD). Differences between the maximum and minimum diameters of the coronary sinus (∆%) on echocardiography were evaluated in individuals with the indeterminate form of CD (n=14) and those without (n=16) CD. The association of the difference with abnormalities detected by echocardiography and myocardial scintigraphy was assessed. The mean Δ% values did not differ significantly between the groups. There was no correlation of the measurements with echocardiographic and myocardial scintigraphy findings. The coronary sinus evaluation revealed no differences between the groups.
