Primary Endocardial Fibroelastosis and Nonimmune Hydrops Fetalis: Case Report with Autopsy

摘要

Endocardial fibroelastosis is an important cause of congestive heart failure and death in infancy and early childhood. When present, it is commonly associated with non immune hydrops fetalis. The aim of this study is to draw attention for possible cardiac abnormalities in cases of fetal hydrops, and report a case of premature death by primary endocardial fibroelastosis with autopsy.
