 Cardiomyopathies                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              Cardiomyopathies are diseases of the heart muscle that can lead to heart failure and arrhythmias. Types include hypertrophic, dilated, and restrictive cardiomyopathies. Genetic testing plays a crucial role in diagnosing inherited forms. Treatment varies depending on the type and may include medications, lifestyle modifications, and surgical interventions such as septal myectomy for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
