Treat hypertrophic cardiomyopathy? Ca and B blockers
restrictive cardiomyopathy results from? infiltration resulting in normal size with stiff walls
localized amyloidosis of the heart restrictive cardiomyopathy in the elderly pale heart with amyloid around the vessels and myocardium
Systemic amyloidosis affecting the heart most common cause of death in people with plasma cell dyscrasia
what causes sytemic amyloidosis granulomatous disease, glycogen storage disease, Hurlers, Gauchers, Fabry, hemochromatosis, metastatic disease
what is the treatment for restrictive cardiomyopathy none need transplant or to treat underlying disease

what are the two kinds of obliterative cardiomyopathies Endomyocardial fibrosis (loefflers) and Endocardial fibroelastosis
Loeffler's endomyocarditis Obliterative restrictive cardiomyopathy caused by hypereosinophilia common in the subtropics of africa
endocardial fibroelastosis Restrictive obliterative cardiomyopathy with normal wall but large endocardium (10x normal) with cartilage like fibroelastic endocardial thickening common in those age 0-2 Left more than right
myocarditis inflamation of the myocardium due to primary and secondary causes

which pericarditis can progress to chronic supporative, hemorrhagic and caseous
what are the two types of choronic pericarditis adhesive and constrictive
difference between chronic adhesive and chronic constrictive adhesive pulls and dilated the heart which constrictive (scar) enclosed and decreases the size of theheart
