Abstract

In the early extralymphatic affection of the organs without relevant clinical and roentgenological findings the diagnosis of the lymphogranulomatosis makes difficulties. It is referred to the peculiarities of the extra-nodal manifestation. The case of a lymphogranulomatosis with early participation of the heart is described and it is gone more fully into the differential diagnosis. Disturbances of the regression of excitation in the ECG are etiologically ambiguous and may be the first recognizable findings of a penetration of a tumour into the pericardium.
