  • Title: [Restrictive cardiomyopathy as a late sequel of influenza A2 virus myocarditis].
    Author: Schmaltz AA, Seitz KH, Schenck W, Both A, Kraus B.
    Journal: Z Kardiol; 1986 Oct; 75(10):605-8. PubMed ID: 3788252.
    Abstract:
    A clinically acute myocarditis with an increase of the influenza A2-virus titer marks the beginning of a ten year history leading to a restrictive cardiomyopathy, complicated by an exudative enteropathy. Two serial endomyocardial biopsies reveal an increasing interstitial fibrosis. Virus myocarditis as a cause of restrictive cardiomyopathy, which corresponds to the old term "myocardial fibrosis", is discussed.
