[Two cases with vitium cordis congenitum and rare nodules in the epicard (author's transl)].
In one newborn and one infant with vitium cordis congenitum in the epicard in correlation with coronary arteries little nodules were found. By histological observation a direct communication of large intermyocardial sinusoids and the lumen of the ventricle was seen. It is suggested, that these are arterio-venous anastomoses.
