Myocarditis may develop as a result of infection with the polio virus. Due to the fact that the pathology is a severe disease, myocarditis that can be detected after death. Myocardial patchy with clinical signs of cardiac, vascular, and respiratory failure, which are observed on the background of bulbar palsy.
