Restrictive cardiomyopathy: definition and diagnosis [PDF]
Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) is a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by restrictive left ventricular pathophysiology, i.e. a rapid rise in ventricular pressure with only small increases in filling volume due to increased myocardial ...

Genetic Insights into Primary Restrictive Cardiomyopathy
Restrictive cardiomyopathy is a rare cardiac disease causing severe diastolic dysfunction, ventricular stiffness and dilated atria. In consequence, it induces heart failure often with preserved ejection fraction and is associated with a high mortality ...

Restrictive Cardiomyopathy in a Child
Restrictive cardiomyopathy in young children is rare and carries a poor prognosis. We report an 18-month-old girl with poor feeding and abdominal distension. Except for hepatomegaly, no other gastrointestinal abnormalities were found. She had normalsized

Restrictive cardiomyopathy: from genetics and clinical overview to animal modeling
Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM), a potentially devastating heart muscle disorder, is characterized by diastolic dysfunction due to abnormal muscle relaxation and myocardial stiffness resulting in restrictive filling of the ventricles.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a group of myocardial diseases defined by cardiac hypertrophy which cannot be explained by secondary causes with a non-dilated left ventricle and preserved or increased ejection fraction.

Prognosis of pediatric restrictive cardiomyopathy: more severe in sarcomeric variants [PDF]
Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) is the most severe type of cardiomyopathy in children with a very poor prognosis. RCM is often diagnosed between 6 and 10 years old and is predominantly of genetic origin. We conducted a retrospective study of 53 patients.

Engineered cardiac tissue model of restrictive cardiomyopathy for drug discovery
Summary Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) is defined as increased myocardial stiffness and impaired diastolic relaxation leading to elevated ventricular filling pressures. Human variants in filamin C (FLNC) are linked to a variety of cardiomyopathies, and

Multimodality Imaging Clues for Restrictive Cardiomyopathy
Restrictive cardiomyopathy is an entity that can be mistaken for several mimicking conditions, including hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. These patients present with heart failure, which is essentially due to left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, with ...

BACKGROUND Constrictive pericarditis (CP) is an uncommon but reversible cause of diastolic heart failure if appropriately identified and treated. However, its diagnosis remains a challenge for clinicians.

Pediatric Restrictive Cardiomyopathies [PDF]
Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) is the least frequent phenotype among pediatric heart muscle diseases, representing only 2.5–3% of all cardiomyopathies diagnosed during childhood. Pediatric RCM has a poor prognosis, high incidence of pulmonary hypertension (PH), thromboembolic events, and sudden death, is less amenable to medical or surgical treatment
