Pediatric Restrictive Cardiomyopathies [PDF]

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2022
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

Focus on Paediatric Restrictive Cardiomyopathy: Frequently Asked Questions [PDF]

Diagnostics, 2023
Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) is characterized by restrictive ventricular pathophysiology determined by increased myocardial stiffness. While suspicion of RCM is initially raised by clinical evaluation and supported by electrocardiographic and ...

Case Report: Filamin C gene mutation associated with restrictive cardiomyopathy leading to heart transplantation [PDF]

Frontiers in Transplantation
BackgroundCardiomyopathy is a disease that affects the myocardium and can be classified as dilated, restrictive, or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Among the subtypes, restrictive cardiomyopathy is characterized by restriction of ventricular filling and its

An Unusual Case of 11αB‐Crystallin (CRYAB) Mutation as a Cause of Dilated Cardiomyopathy With Restrictive Physiology: A Case Report and Focused Review of the Literature [PDF]

Clinical Case Reports
Several diseases have been linked to αB‐crystallin (CRYAB) mutation. However, this mutation is an uncommon cause that has been associated in recent years with the development of dilated cardiomyopathy.

Pediatric restrictive cardiomyopathy: a case report [PDF]

Journal of International Medical Research, 2023
Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) is a rare childhood cardiomyopathy that is a challenging diagnostic problem for clinicians. We describe a case of an 8-year-old girl with a 2-year history of shortness of breath on exertion.

Generation of human induced pluripotent stem cell line from a patient with restrictive cardiomyopathy

Stem Cell Research
Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) is a rare cardiomyopathy characterized by diastolic dysfunction, which affects cardiac systolic function. We successfully established human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) from peripheral blood mononuclear cells ...
