Abstract
While originally thought to be uncommon, familial dilated cardiomyopathy may occur quite often. Aside from symptoms of heart failure, these forms of dilated cardiomyopathy may be associated with arrhythmias and sudden death. The case detailed describes such a patient and emphasizes the importance of a careful family history. Also discussed is the importance of screening of first- and second-degree relatives of these patients.
