Overview
Dilated cardiomyopathy can be classified in terms of etiology, according to the presence of ischemia (ischemic and non-ischemic) or the mode of inheritance (Familial and non-familial).
Classification
Dilated cardiomyopathy can be classified in terms of etiology [1]:
- Based on the presence of ischemia
- Ischemic DCM: In which the underlying cause is related to ischemia like coronary artery disease.
- Non-ischemic DCM: In which ischemia was not he main driver of DCM pathogenesis.
- Based on the mode of inheritance:
- Familial: In which an inherited genetic mutation started the myopathy process
- Non-familial: related to other causes as infections, toxins, drugs, and peripartum cardiomyopathy
