Cerebral arteriovenous malformation in neonates. The role of myocardial ischemia
Abstract
Ischemic myocardial damage was identified as a complicating feature in the clinical course of 12 newborn infants who died in congestive failure with cerebral arteriovenous malformation. Electrocardiograms of 11 patients showed signs of chamber hypertrophy and T wave and ST segment features of varying degree compatible with ischemia or infarction. Histological evidence of myocardial necrosis or infarction was detected in seven of the ten infants from whom autopsy material was still available.
