Abstract

Abstract

Primary cardiomyopathies can be classified into several categories, such as dilated cardiomyopathy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, restrictive cardiomyopathy, arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy/arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy, etc. Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) is characterized by nondilated ventricles with impaired ventricular filling. Signs of both pulmonary and systemic congestion appear in patients. Other symptoms include dyspnea, peripheral edema, palpitations, fatigue, weakness, and exercise intolerance. Investigations include Electrocardiogram, Chest Radiograph, echocardiography, and cardiac magnetic resonance. Different treatment strategies are discussed. Other causes, such as Amyloidosis, Endomyocardial fibrosis, Fabry disease, Gaucher disease, Hemochromatosis, and Sarcoidosis are discussed.
