Cardiomyopathy

Cardiomyopathy
Several forms of cardiomyopathy are due to single gene defects,
most being inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. The
term cardiomyopathy was initially used to distinguish cardiac
muscle disease of unknown origin from abnormalities
secondary to hypertension, coronary artery disease and valvular
disease.
