| dc.description.abstract | A lot is now known about endomyocardial fibrosis (EMF) since its original description by Bedford and Konstam (1946) among African soldiers who had served in the Middle East during the Second World War. Its pathology, clinical echocardiography, haemodynamic and radiological features have been clearly defined (Cockshott, 1965; Somers & Fowler, 1968; Edington & Gilles, 1976; George, Gaba & Talabi, 1982; Acquatella, 1983), and it is now known to occur in other parts of the world, apart from Africa (Olsen, 1983). It was recently classified by the WHO/ ISFC Task Force (1980) as a restrictive cardiomyopathy. | en_US |
