Abstract
The semi-quantitative histologic and immunohistochemical analyses were carried out on the biopsy and autopsy samples of right atrium, interatrial septum and left ventricle of 110 patients. The antibodies against calcineurin, natriuretic peptide, prealbumin (transthyretin), λ- and κ-light chains, АА amyloid, Ki-67-antigen, VP1-antigen of enterovirus, herpes simplex virus, cytomegalovirus, LMP- antigen of Epstein-Barr virus, adenovirus, parvovirus B19 were used. All cases with persistent atrial fibrillation are characterized by myocarditis, amyloidosis signs and by the presence of enterovirus and parvovirus B19 antigens, and more rarely by adenovirus.
