Resumo: | The indeterminate form of Chagas' disease is characterized by positive serology for the disease in the absence of clinical findings and in the presence of both normal esophagogram and electrocardiogram. When more sensitive methods were used, abnormalities have been described either in the esophagus or in the heart. The authors have studied simultaneously the esophagus and the heart in the same subjects. In thirteen adults with diagnosis of indeterminate form and nine adult controls, the esophageal manometry both in basal conditions and after stimulus (bethanecol) and vectorcardiogram were performed. In the control group none of the subjects presented concomitant esophageal and cardiac alterations while in the chagasic group 92,3% of the patients presented results simultaneously altered. It is concluded that the studied patients showed indications of parasympathetic denervation manifested by simultaneously esophageal and heart alterations. |

Esophageal manometry and vectorcardiography study of asymptomatic patients with Chagas' disease Manometria esofágica e estudo vetorcardiográfico em pacientes assintomáticos portadores de Doença de Chagas Chagas' disease-indeterminate form The indeterminate form of Chagas' disease is characterized by positive serology for the disease in the absence of clinical findings and in the presence of both normal esophagogram and electrocardiogram. When more sensitive methods were used, abnormalities have been described either in the esophagus or in the heart.

A forma indeterminada da Doença de Chagas é caracterizada por sorologia positiva com ausência de manifestações clínicas, na presença de resultados normais aos exames radiológico do tubo digestivo e eletrocardiográfico. No presente trabalho, os autores estudam simultaneamente o esôfago e o coração, nos mesmos indivíduos. Treze adultos com diagnóstico de forma indeterminada da Doença de Chagas e nove adultos controles foram submetidos ao exame vetorcardiográfico e à manometria esofágica em condições basais e sob estímulo com cloridrato de betanecol (0,08 mg/kg p.c). No grupo controle nenhum dos indivíduos apresentou concomitância de alterações esofágicas e cardíacas, enquanto no grupo chagásico 92,3% dos pacientes apresentaram exames concomitantemente alterados. Concluem que os pacientes estudados apresentam evidências de desnervação parassimpática manifestada por alterações simultâneas esofágicas e cardíacas. Universidade de São Paulo.
