A type of cardiomyopathy characterised by isolated severe dilatation of the right heart with right ventricular hypertrophy and absence of cardiac arrhythmias is described in seven patients. Only girls were affected and all except one lived in rural Zimbabwe. Six were under 5 years old. This probably represents a new type of cardiomyopathy.
本文描述了7例患有一种特殊类型心肌病的患者，其特征为单纯性严重右心扩张伴右心室肥厚，且无心律失常。仅女童患病，除1例患者外，其余均生活在津巴布韦农村地区。6例患者年龄在5岁以下。这可能代表了一种新型心肌病。
