Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) is an uncommon heart muscle disorder characterized by impaired ventricular filling and increased stiffness of the myocardium with diastolic dysfunction, resulting in atrial enlargement and elevated systemic and pulmonary venous pressure. To date, mutations have been identified in the cardiac genes.
