Abstract
Reference is made to the absence of reports of cardiac involvement in peroneal muscular atrophy. A case of peroneal muscular atrophy is described in which paroxysmal atrial flutter and cardiac failure occurred. Reasons are advanced for suggesting that the cardiac arrhythmia may be directly related to peroneal muscular atrophy.Keywords
