A radical new surgery procedure, laughed at not long ago, is holding out our fresh hope for patients of cardiac myopathy, or enlargement of the heart. The technique now in India, allows patients to go home two weeks after the operation, to lead a near normal sedentary life. Cardiac myopathy is a condition that has a variety of causative factors. An attack from one of the 20 identified viruses, parasite infection, long-term alcohol abuse and blood pressure could bring it on, and in rare cases, it could follow in child birth and is even known to run in families. The condition is marked by an increase in the size of the hearts chambers and a decrease in the efficiency of pumping. 32. The cardiac myopathy slows down the heartbeat. 33. Cardiac myopathy is hereditary. 34. Earlier the patients suffering from cardiac myopathy were required to travel abroad for such operation. 35. The new technique was never tried in India in the past. 36. The efficiency of the heart is inversely proportional to the size of the heart.
