Abstract
To study the inheritance of idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy, we investigated a large kindred in which 11 young male members had definite or possible evidence of the disorder. The five affected males for whom we had complete clinical data survived for 5 to 12 months after the onset of symptoms, which occurred early in life (ages 15 to 21 years). In six other males, clinical data were incomplete but suggested possible cardiomyopathy.This publication has 17 references indexed in Scilit:
