Association in case series does not establish causality; leaves open whether intrauterine mumps causes primary endocardial fibroelastosis.
Is there an embryopathic relation between intrauterine mumps-virus infection and primary endocardial fibroelastosis?
The study suggests a potential pathogenetic relationship between intrauterine mumps-virus infection and the development of primary endocardial fibroelastosis.
Geme et al. (1966) studied this question.
