A dilated alcoholic cardiomyopathy.
Dilated forms of cardiomyopathy are characterized by ventricular chamber enlargement and systolic dysfunction with normal LV wall thickness. Among other causes, chronic excessive consumption of alcohol has a very important presence. We present a case of a dilated alcoholic cardiomyopathy in a 65-year-old man. Also this case focuses attention on dilated alcoholic cardiomyopathy.
