Restrictive Cardiomyopathy
Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) is a myocardial disorder that usually results from increased myocardial stiffness that leads to impaired ventricular filling. Biventricular chamber size and systolic function are usually normal or nearnormal until later stages of the disease. Affecting either or both ventricles, RCM may cause signs or symptoms of left or right heart failure. Arrhythmias and cond...
متن کاملDesmin-related restrictive cardiomyopathy.
Restrictive cardiomyopathies may have different etiologies, among which we can point out storage diseases by accumulation of different materials such as desmin. Desminopathies are uncommon diseases that progress with conduction abnormalities, peripheral myopathies, and ventricular dysfunction. The present report describes a patient with complete atrioventricular block as the initial event; he l...
متن کاملIdiopathic restrictive cardiomyopathy.
This report details the clinical, hemodynamic, and morphologic data from four patients 59 to 77 years old (mean 66) with a primary restrictive cardiomyopathy. All patients had symptoms of congestive heart failure, jugular venous distention, and murmurs of mitral and tricuspid regurgitation. Four patients required pacemakers, three for the brady-tachy syndrome and one for complete heart block. C...
متن کاملMitochondriopathy: a rare aetiology of restrictive cardiomyopathy.
When diagnosing a restrictive hypertrophied cardiomyopathy, most echocardiographists consider cardiac amyloidosis as a possible cause, especially after the appearance of 'granular' sparkling echoes on a transthoracic echocardiography. However, other infiltrative diseases (i.e. metabolic myopathies, Gaucher, Hunter's, and Hurler's diseases) or storage cardiomyopathies (haemochromatosis, Fabry's ...
متن کاملRestrictive Cardiomyopathy: A Rare Case Report
We report a 28 years old male presenting with heart failure. A thorough clinical evaluation directed us towards restrictive heart disease. Doppler echocardiographic study was used as a main modality of diagnosis and cardiac catheterization confirmed the diagnosis of idiopathic restrictive cardiomyopathy. We express the contribution of clinical findings and appropriate diagnostic measures in app...
