==Overview== | ==Overview== | ||
Cardiomegaly is often caused by [[hypertension]], but it can also occur as a result of other heart conditions, such as [[congestive heart failure]]. Common causes of cardiomegaly due to dilation of the myocardium (not hypertrophy) are [[dilated cardiomyopathy]] (non-ischemic [[cardiomyopathy]]) and [[ischemic heart disease]]. | |||

Overview
Cardiomegaly is often caused by hypertension, but it can also occur as a result of other heart conditions, such as congestive heart failure. Common causes of cardiomegaly due to dilation of the myocardium (not hypertrophy) are dilated cardiomyopathy (non-ischemic cardiomyopathy) and ischemic heart disease.
Causes
Life Threatening Causes
Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.
Common Causes
- Cardiomyopathy
- Congestive heart failure
- Hypertensive heart disease
- Valvular heart disease
- Fludrocortisone
- Hypothyroidism
- Lymphadenopathy
