[Fibroplastic parietal endocarditis with Löffler's hematic oesinophilia (author's transl)]. 1976

V Terribile, and R Mongiat, and S Bergamo

The clinical data and autopsy findings in a case of Löffler endocarditis are reported. The differential diagnosis with endocardial fibrosis of East Africa is discussed. On the basis of their histological findings and recent literature the authors suggest that endocardial fibrosis follows the organization of successive fibrin layers.
