초록
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCMP) remains a life threatening disease in young patients and is often difficult to differentiate frommyocarditis. Early recognition and treatment of DCMP are crucial for good prognoses in this patient population. The clinicalcourse of patients with DCMP that result in cardiogenic shock varies according to the etiology as well as patient age. Thevolumetric expansion of the enlarged heart can compress adjacent structures causing a number of related symptoms, especially ininfants with soft cartilaginous bronchi. Therapeutic strategies for treating these issues vary according to the type of complicationencountered. We report a case of severe DCMP with sudden onset of massive cardiomegaly with heart failure complicated bybronchial obstruction in an infant.
Abstract
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCMP) remains a life threatening disease in young patients and is often difficult to differentiate frommyocarditis. Early recognition and treatment of DCMP are crucial for good prognoses in this patient population. The clinicalcourse of patients with DCMP that result in cardiogenic shock varies according to the etiology as well as patient age. Thevolumetric expansion of the enlarged heart can compress adjacent structures causing a number of related symptoms, especially ininfants with soft cartilaginous bronchi. Therapeutic strategies for treating these issues vary according to the type of complicationencountered. We report a case of severe DCMP with sudden onset of massive cardiomegaly with heart failure complicated bybronchial obstruction in an infant.
