AUTOR(ES)
Savage, T. R.
RESUMO
A case of polyarteritis nodosa in the first year of life with the clinical picture dominated by pyrexia, an initial upper respiratory element, episodes of tachycardia, and sudden death three weeks after the onset is described. The necropsy showed evidence of polyarteritis nodosa, myocarditis, and valvulitis as well as congenital pyloric hypertrophy. Clinical manifestations of the latter had preceded the final illness and the two diseases were not thought to be related.
