Abstract
The etiology of peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is unknown. Therefore, we evaluated the etiology of patients clinically diagnosed with PPCM using endomyocardial biopsy. We studied five patients diagnosed with PPCM following endomyocardial biopsy (age, 28-42 years; mean age, 35 years). Biopsied samples were evaluated using microscopy, including immunostaining and electron microscopy. The pathological findings were as follows: myocardial hypertrophy, myocardial fibrosis, and cell infiltration. Two patients were diagnosed with lymphocytic myocarditis, one with eosinophilic myocarditis, one with hypertensive heart disease, and one with a combination of hypertension and myocarditis. Endomyocardial biopsy suggested that the causes of PPCM were varied and related to myocarditis and myocardial overload due to hypertension.

Abstract
Among women with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDC), the percent who develop heart failure (HF) in the peripartum period (during pregnancy or within 6 months of parturition) compared with those women who develop HF outside the peripartum period is unclear. We studied 72 women with IDC who underwent orthotopic heart transplantation for severe HF, the onset of which was in the peripartum period in 8 (11%) and outside the period in 64 (89%). Comparison of many clinical and morphologic variables between these 2 groups showed significant differences only in the ages of onset of HF, age when orthotopic heart transplantation was performed, and the frequency of the presence of diabetes mellitus. Examination of the hearts in the 2 groups disclosed no significant differences. Thus, separation of the peripartum IDC cases from the nonperipartum IDC cases by either clinical or cardiac morphologic variables is difficult.

Abstract
Importance Peripartum cardiomyopathy is a rare form of heart failure due to left ventricular systolic dysfunction that affects women late in pregnancy and the postpartum period. A diagnosis of exclusion, peripartum cardiomyopathy can be difficult to diagnose in the context of the normal physiologic changes of pregnancy and requires a high index of suspicion. Evidence Acquisition Original research articles, review articles, and guidelines on peripartum cardiomyopathy were reviewed. Results The etiology of peripartum cardiomyopathy remains poorly defined, but theories include genetic predisposition, as well as myocardial inflammation and angiogenic dysregulation. Risk factors for this condition include hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, Black race, and maternal age older than 30 years. Patients with peripartum cardiomyopathy are at increased risk of acute clinical decompensation, cardiac arrhythmias, thromboembolic complications, and death. Primary treatment modalities include initiation of a medication regimen aimed at the optimization of preload and reduction of afterload. Maternal clinical status is the primary determinant for timing of delivery. Conclusions Prompt diagnosis and medical management by an interdisciplinary care team are vital for improving outcomes in patients with peripartum cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is an idiopathic reduction in left ventricular function, presenting at the peripartum period. The diagnosis is based on echocardiographic features and excluding other causes of heart failure. Similar to any other cause of heart failure, the management of PPCM consists of diuretics, prevention of ventricular remodeling, preventing short and long-term complications. Ventricular clots, transient cerebral ischemic attacks, lower extremity thrombosis, kidney and liver infarcts and pulmonary thromboembolism have been previously reported in PPCM cases. Among them, pulmonary thromboembolism is one of the most important complications, as it is also a challenging differential diagnosis of PPCM. We discuss a case of PPCM followed by a diagnosis of pulmonary thromboembolism and briefly review the relevant PPCM literature.

Abstract
Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is a rare, often dilated, cardiomyopathy with systolic dysfunction that presents in late pregnancy or, more commonly, the early postpartum period. Although the condition is prevalent worldwide, women with black ancestry seem to be at greatest risk, and the condition has a particularly high incidence in Nigeria and Haiti. Other risk factors include pre-eclampsia, advanced maternal age, and multiple gestation pregnancy. Although the complete pathophysiology of peripartum cardiomyopathy remains unclear, research over the past decade suggests the importance of vasculo-hormonal pathways in women with underlying susceptibility. At least some women with the condition harbor an underlying sarcomere gene mutation. More than half of affected women recover systolic function, although some are left with a chronic cardiomyopathy, and a minority requires mechanical support or cardiac transplantation (or both). Other potential complications include thromboembolism and arrhythmia. Currently, management entails standard treatments for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, with attention to minimizing potential adverse effects on the fetus in women who are still pregnant. Bromocriptine is one potential disease specific treatment under investigation. In this review, we summarize the current literature on peripartum cardiomyopathy, as well as gaps in the understanding of this condition and future research directions.

Abstract
Peripartum cardiomyopathy is an idiopathic cardiomyopathy presenting with heart failure secondary to left ventricular systolic dysfunction towards the end of pregnancy or in the months following delivery, where no other cause for heart failure is identified. Outcome varies from full recovery to residual left ventricular systolic dysfunction and even death. Many women return to their physician to acquire information on their long-term prognosis, to seek medical advice regarding contraception, or when planning a subsequent pregnancy. This position paper summarizes current evidence for long-term outcome, risk stratification of further pregnancies and overall management. Based on the best available evidence, as well as the clinical experience of the European Society of Cardiology Study Group on Peripartum Cardiomyopathy members, a consensus on pre- and postpartum management algorithms for women undergoing a subsequent pregnancy is presented.

Abstract
Vasoinhibins (Vi) are fragments of the growth hormone/prolactin (PRL) family and have antiangiogenic functions in many species. It is considered that Vi derived from PRL are involved in the pathogenesis of peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM). However, the pathogenic mechanism of PPCM, as well as heart angiogenesis, is not yet clear. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to clarify whether Vi act directly on angiogenesis inhibition in heart blood vessels. Endothelial cell viability was decreased by Vi treatment in a culture experiment. Furthermore, expression of proangiogenic genes, such as vascular endothelial growth factor, endothelial nitric oxide synthase, and VE-cadherin, were decreased. On the other hand, apoptotic factor gene, caspase 3, and inflammatory factor genes, tumor necrosis factor α and interleukin 6, were increased by Vi treatment. In three-dimensional left ventricular wall angiogenesis assay in mice, Vi treatment also inhibited cell migration, neovessel sprouting, and growth toward collagen gel. These data demonstrate that Vi treatment directly suppresses angiogenesis of the heart and support the hypothesis that Vi induce PPCM.

Abstract
Peripartum cardiomyopathy is a heart failure syndrome occurring late in pregnancy or during the early post-natal period. The pathophysiology of peripartum cardiomyopathy is not fully understood and various mechanisms have been postulated including an underlying inflammatory process. We here report four cases presenting with acute left ventricular systolic dysfunction. Three out of four of the patients presented with a left ventricular ejection fraction <30% and one with a left ventricular ejection fraction of 35%. All made a full clinical recovery following treatment with high-dose intravenous steroids. This case series adds to the growing body of evidence for the role for immunosuppressants in the management of peripartum cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
Advancements in the treatment of heart failure (HF) with systolic dysfunction have given rise to a new population of patients with improved ejection fraction (EF). The management of this distinct population is not well described due to a lack of consensus on the definition of myocardial recovery, a scarcity of data on the natural history of these patients, and the absence of focused clinical trials. Moreover, an improvement in EF may have different prognostic and management implications depending on the underlying etiology of cardiomyopathy. This can be challenging for the clinician who is approached by a patient inquiring about a reduction of medical therapy after apparent EF recovery. This review explores management strategies for HF patients with recovered EF in a disease-specific format.

Abstract
Heart failure with left ventricular dysfunction occurring during pregnancy or during the post-partum period in patients without history of cardiovascular disease defines peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM). PPCM carries a high morbidity and mortality rate as well as the possibility of recovery ad integrum. Its incidence shows ethnic variations, with a greater prevalence of the disease among women with African descent. Pathogenesis of PPCM remains poorly understood. Both "oxidative stress-prolactin axis" and "anti-angiogenic-signaling excess" hypotheses are currently being investigated. Novel diagnostic strategies and biomarkers are currently being evaluated. Besides conventional treatment of heart failure, targeted therapies such as pharmacological prolactin blockade are under evaluation. The aim of this short review is to highlight current management as targeted therapy has far been disappointing.

Abstract
Aims Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is a major cause of acute heart failure in the peripartum period and considered potentially life threatening. While many aspects of its clinical profiles have been frequently reported, functional analysis, in particular of the right ventricle, and tissue characterization by cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging have been only sporadically described. The aim of the present study was to analyse pathological alterations and their prognostic relevance found in CMR imaging of patients newly diagnosed with PPCM. Methods and results In this multicenter study 34 patients with confirmed PPCM underwent CMR imaging at the time of diagnosis and at 5 ± 1 months follow‐up. Cine imaging of PPCM patients showed moderate to severe reduction of systolic left ventricular (LV) function (mean LVEF: 29.7 ± 12.8%). In 35% of the patients right ventricular (RV) systolic function was also reduced with a mean RVEF of 42.9 ± 13.9%. Dilatation of the LV was observed in 91% (mean LV‐EDV/BSA 128.5 ± 32.1 mL/m2), and dilatation of the RV was present in 24% (mean RV‐EDV/BSA 87.4 ± 18.5 mL/m2) of the patients. Focal non‐ischemic late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) was visible in 71%, and regional wall motion abnormalities were evident in 88% of the patients. LGE and wall motion abnormalities were predominantly located in the anteroseptal and basal to midventricular segments. RV dysfunction at baseline was associated with reduced probability of full cardiac recovery at 5 ± 1 months follow‐up. Conclusions Besides LV systolic dysfunction, RV dysfunction and dilatation are observed in about one third of PPCM patients at the time of diagnosis. RV dysfunction is associated with unfavourable outcome. A distinct pattern of LV wall motion abnormalities and myocardial scar is evident in most PPCM patients. The present study may help to establish a set of CMR criteria suitable for diagnosis in patients with suspected PPCM and may add further knowledge to the pathology of the disease.

Abstract
Although the long term prognosis of patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) remains poor, approximately 25 % of DCM patients with recent onset of heart failure (< 6 months) have a relatively benign clinical course with a spontaneously improvement in symptoms and partial, or in some cases complete, recovery of left ventricular (LV) function. Despite the longstanding recognition of the clinical phenomenon of LV recovery, relatively little attention has been paid to the etiology and natural history of this important group of DCM patients. Accordingly, in the present review we will focus on the epidemiology and natural history of recent onset DCM in patients who undergo spontaneous resolution of symptoms that is accompanied by recovery of LV function.

Abstract
Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PCM) is a relatively rare disease with potentially devasting consequences requiring prompt identification and correct treatment. Overall prognosis is good in majority of the cases, although some patients may progress to irreversible heart failure. Early diagnosis is important and effective treatment reduces mortality rates and increases the chance of complete recovery of ventricular systolic function. The aetiology and pathogenesis seems to be multifactorial and poorly understood, with the available literature rather conflicting. In recent years, there has been increased interest in the role played by genetic predisposition in the development of PCM. It probably develops as a result of a complex interaction of pregnancy-associated factors and genetic factors and recently there have been many observations pointing out the central role played by a genetic predisposition. The direct and indirect observations on genetic susceptibility may offer new insights into the pathogenesis of PCM. However, larger studies are needed before advising routine genetic testing in these patients.
