What can cause myocardial fibrosis? is sudden death common with myocardial fibrosis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
SCD: Sudden cardiac death is related to ejection fraction. The lower it is, the greater the risk. The cause of myocardial fibrosis is, in most cases, not known. If you've had a cardiac arrest due to myocardial fibrosis, you should have an ICD placed.
