title: [Restrictive cardiac involvement in a patient with dyserythropoietic anemia and secondary hemochromatosis].
abstract: We report a case of a 63 year old woman diagnosed with dyserythropoietic anemia who was admitted to our hospital with congestive heart failure. Iron's metabolism disturbance, CT-Scan and magnetic resonance imaging allowed us to make the diagnosis of acquired hemochromatosis due to multiple transfusions. The echocardiographic study was compatible with a myocardial restrictive pattern caused by iron deposits.
