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).
