Informations générales
Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a disorder characterised by enlargement of the heart (especially of the left ventricle), poor myocardial contractility, and congestive heart failure. This specific test detects a mutation to the gene TTN that has been linked to an increased risk for the disorder in the Doberman.
Caractéristiques cliniques
DCM is an enlargement of the heart that can result in decreased heart function and abnormal heart rhythm. Clinical signs of heart failure due to DCM include fainting or collapse, weight loss, breathlessness, fluid retention in the abdomen, and sudden death due to cardiac arrest.
Additional Information
The mutation in this test should be considered a risk factor. It is associated with the disorder, but does not necessarily guarantee it.
