A geochemical basis for endomyocardial fibrosis.

M S Valiathan1, C C Kartha, J T Eapen, H S Dang, C M Sunta.   

Abstract

Analysis of hearts of patients dying from endomyocardial fibrosis showed a significantly greater concentration of cerium, a lanthanide present in leafy vegetables and root tubers, than in control hearts. This may be important in the pathogenesis of the disease and provides a geographical basis for the prevalence of the disease in the tropics.
