What is the definition of Dilated Cardiomyopathy with Hypergonadotropic Hypogonadism?
Dilated cardiomyopathy with hypergonadotropic hypogonadism (DCMHH) is a condition that primarily affects the heart and gonads (male testes or female ovaries). It is characterized by a disease of the heart muscle (dilated cardiomyopathy) and little or no production of sex hormones due to a problem with the pituitary gland or hypothalamus (hypergonadotropic hypogonadism). Other symptoms might include: characteristic facial features, intellectual disability, mild skeletal anomalies, and abnormalities of the metabolic system. Some cases of DCMHH are caused by genetic changes in the LMNA gene. Both autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive inheritance patterns have been described.
