Sažetak
Interest in heart diseases of animals largely developed in the middle of the last century at which time the terms "primary myocardial disease, " "cardiomyopathy, " and "myocardiopathy" were proposed to identify a series of disorders that affected primarily the myocardium. Since that time, a large number of animal cardiac diseases has been described taht occur either spontaneously or are experimentally induced. Tooday, cardiac diseases of animals provide many unique opportunities to explore diverse aspects of cardiovascular medicine. Some of these diseases correspond closely to conditions known to affect humans ; others constitute model systems for specific aspects of certain human disorders ; and still others represent situations of intrinsic genetic, morphologic, toxicologic, or pharmacologic interest. Bearing in mind strong human-animal bound, this year will be presented and discussed some selected interesting cases of cardiac pathology in different animal species, with the wish to broaden our knowledge about animal diseases. Cases are related to sudden cardiac death, primary and secondary cardiomyopathies and heart pathology related to nutritional and endocrine disorders.
