Objective: Our goal was to demonstrate the usefulness of echocardiography and cardiac Doppler echocardiography (echo-Doppler) in the diagnosis of endomyocardial fibrosis, an unusual restrictive cardiomyopathy in Argentina.
Methods: Between 1980 and 1998, we studied 10 women (aged 27 to 58 years) with endomyocardial fibrosis confirmed by surgery and/or endomyocardial biopsy. Of the 10 cases of endomyocardial fibrothrombosis, 8 were biventricular and 2 were left ventricular.
