[Heart arrhythmias and conduction disorders in patients with acromegaly: the role of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging].

Unlabelled: Cardiovascular complications including arrhythmias and cardiac conduction disorders are one of the main reasons of high mortality rate in acromegaly, while they have not been well explored.

Aim: To estimate arrhythmias frequency in acromegaly, identify risk factors leading to the development of arrhythmia and cardiac conduction disorder, to determine the role of cardiac MRI in detecting structural and functional changes.

Materials And Methods: A single-center prospective cohort study, which included 461 patients (151 men and 310 women) with acromegaly, was conducted.
