Kardiomyopathien — genetische Ursachen und Pathogenese

  • Chapter
Book cover Herz-Kreislauf-Erkrankungen

Part of the book series: Handbuch der Molekularen Medizin ((HDBMOLEK,volume 3))

Zusammenfassung

Als Kardiomyopathien werden Krankheiten des Herzmuskels bezeichnet, die zu einer Beeinträchtigung der systolischen und/oder diastolischen Funktion der Herzkammern führen. Dabei werden am Herzen zugleich auffällige Strukturveränderungen gesehen, die für die einzelnen Formen der Kardiomyopathie charakteristisch sind. Zeichen der Veränderung sind — je nach Art der Krankheit — Hypertrophie der Herzmuskulatur, Atrophie des Myokards mit Ersatz durch Binde- und Fettgewebe, Dilatation der Kammern mit oder ohne Hypertrophie der Myozyten oder Fibrosierung des Gewebes. Histologische Zeichen sind u. a. die unregelmäßige Anordnung von Myozyten und Verdickungen der Wände kleiner Arterien. Typische funktionelle Änderungen betreffen, wiederum je nach Grundkrankheit unterschiedlich, die Kontraktion mit eingeschränkter Pumpfunktion, die Relaxation und das Füllungsverhalten der Kammern sowie die Erregungsausbreitung, die oft gestört ist, zuweilen bis hin zum Kammerflimmern. Fast alle Formen der Kardiomyopathie gehen mit einem erhöhten Risiko für einen plötzlichen Herztod einher.
