Early Use of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy to Accelerate Symptomatic Relief and Complete Left Ventricular Function Recovery in Peripartum Cardiomyopathy
Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is a rare cause of heart failure that develops during the last month of pregnancy or within first months of delivery. We report the case of a 40-year-old woman diagnosed with severely symptomatic PPCM characterized by left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 10%...
