Abstract
|
|
|
An autopsy case of congenital endocardial fibro-elastosis in a newborn infant is
described. The patient revealed acute fatal type of heart failure sixty-two days after the
birth. Autopsy revealed grayish white mural thickening in the left ventricle, and this
change also involved the mitral valvular structure showing irregular shorttening and
thickening. No evidence of other intra-cardiac malformation was present. Microscopically,
the mural thickening consisted of exuberant proliferation of fibrous tissue as well as the
elastic fibers. There were encountered scattered foci of small round cell infiltration in
the thickened endocardium and subendocardial spaces.
