Familial Isolated Dilated Cardiomyopathy
Homepage Rare diseases Search Search for a rare disease Familial isolated dilated cardiomyopathy Disease definition Familial isolated dilated cardiomyopathy is a rare, genetically heterogeneous cardiac disease characterized by dilatation leading to systolic and diastolic dysfunction of the left and/or right ventricles,[…][orpha.net]
Pulmonary Fibrosis
Some forms of pulmonary hypertension are serious illnesses that become progressively worse and are sometimes fatal. Right-sided heart failure (cor pulmonale).[mayoclinic.org]
This in turn raises pressure within the pulmonary arteries and the lower right heart chamber (right ventricle).[mayoclinic.org]
Secondary Pulmonary Interstitial Fibrosis
Some forms of pulmonary hypertension are serious illnesses that become progressively worse and are sometimes fatal. Right-sided heart failure (cor pulmonale).[mayoclinic.org]
This in turn raises pressure within the pulmonary arteries and the lower right heart chamber (right ventricle).[mayoclinic.org]

Friedreich Ataxia
In a few cases, cardiomyopathy progresses to the point of causing heart failure or fatal arrhythmias, sometimes at a young age. 1 Pathologically, there is a real hypertrophy[doi.org]
[…] of cardiomyocytes at the beginning, followed by their loss and replacement by connective tissue when cardiomyopathy progresses toward heart failure and a final dilation stage[doi.org]
On the other hand, the electrocardiogram is almost always abnormal in the repolarization phase, indicating that subclinical heart disease is almost universal in FRDA.[doi.org]
Familial Pseudohyperkalemia
Progressive symptoms are severe agitation, psychosis, fever, diaphoresis, tachycardia, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, or atrial flutter, confusion, cardiovascular collapse[quizlet.com]
Pituitary Tumur -- causes central hypothyroidism A severe sometimes fatal form of HYPERthyroidism. Initial symptoms are fever, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain.[quizlet.com]
Tracheobronchial Tuberculosis
[…] fibrosis of the pulmonary alveolar walls, with steadily progressive dyspnea , resulting finally in death from oxygen lack or right heart failure.[ufrgs.br]
Sometimes it is a component of BOOP .[ufrgs.br]
The acute, rapidly fatal form is called acute interstitial pneumonia (AIP) / Hamman-Rich disease / cryptogenic fibrosing alveolitis (94%) and has a severe prognosis : it is[ufrgs.br]
