The authors found lesions of inflammatory-fibrotic character in the myocardium of an 8-month-old infant in whom during the first 7.5 months of life no signs of disease were observed. At the end of the 8th month of life the signs of upper respiratory tract infection appeared. In view of rapidly deteriorating health condition, the infant was admitted to hospital, where severe heart failure was revealed, which became the cause of death after three weeks of treatment. The authors supposed that viral myocardial infection initiated the inflammatory process which--after activation of autoimmune mechanisms--led to vast destruction of myocardial fibres and development of fibrous connective tissue.
