  • Title: [Encephalomyocarditis syndrome].
    Author: Fehlow P.
    Journal: Padiatr Grenzgeb; 1991; 30(4):321-6. PubMed ID: 1656372.
    Abstract:
    From 28 autopsy-cases with EMC, among them 10 with an age from 7 days to 16 years, had been none diagnosed clinically before. Typically we found an interstitial myocarditis and perivenous encephalitis with a preferred participation of the brain stem. Central failure was dominating cause of death. There were only 5 cases (3 adults) with meningitis. Myelitis was not found. Former cardiac, less often cerebral lesions are likely risks for the lethal event.
