The association between hypocalcemia and heart failure is rare. There are few reported cases in the literature of this association, which is termed hypocalcemic cardiomyopathy. We report the case of a 61-year-old woman with no relevant medical history, admitted for progressively worsening exertional dyspnea, orthopnea and edema of the lower limbs for a

The Genetic Bases of Cardiomyopathies
Cardiomyopathies represent an important cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality due to heart failure, arrhythmias, and sudden death. A majority of hypertrophic cardiomyopathies (HCM) and at least 30% of dilated cardiomyopathies (DCM) are familial
