Resumen

Introduction: It has been suggested that host genetic factors, environmental factors and the variability of Trypanosoma cruzi (Tc) could be the main determinants of the prevalence of Chagas disease (CD). Since only one third of those chronically infected develop symptoms, it would emphasize the importance of genetic factors in the susceptibility and development of Chronic Chagasic Cardiomyopathy (MCC).
