Overview
Cardiomyopathies are diseases of the myocardium associated with cardiac dysfunction. There are extrinsic and intrinsic Cardiomyoathies. In extrinsic cardiomyopathies is the primary pathology outside the myocardium itself. Most cardiomyopathies are extrinsic, because by far the most common cause of a cardiomyopathy is ischemia. In intrinsic cardiomyopathies exists a weakness in the muscle of the heart that is not due to an identifiable external cause.
