Abstract
Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM), also known as postpartum cardiomyopathy, is an infrequent cause of systolic heart failure that can affect women in the last month of pregnancy and up to five months after delivery. While PPCM is a type of dilated cardiomyopathy, the etiology of this condition remains largely unknown.1 Given the infrequency with which PPCM is encountered and the potential for this condition to be fatal, proper diagnosis and management is critical for reducing maternal and fetal complications, as well as assessing the safety of future pregnancies.
