Cardiomyopathy, familial restrictive, 6(RCM6)

MedGen UID:
1780781
Concept ID:
C5543638
Disease or Syndrome
Synonyms: CARDIOMYOPATHY, FAMILIAL RESTRICTIVE, 6; RCM6
 
Gene (location): KIF20A (5q31.2)
 
Monarch Initiative: MONDO:0030330
OMIM®: 619433

Definition

Familial restrictive cardiomyopathy-6 (RCM6) is characterized by prenatal onset of severe restrictive cardiomyopathy predominantly involving the right ventricle, resulting in irreversible heart failure and early death (Louw et al., 2018). For a general phenotypic description and discussion of genetic heterogeneity of familial restrictive cardiomyopathy, see RCM1 (115210). [from OMIM]

Clinical features

From HPO
Restrictive cardiomyopathy
MedGen UID:
40111
Concept ID:
C0007196
Disease or Syndrome
Restrictive left ventricular physiology is characterized by a pattern of ventricular filling in which increased stiffness of the myocardium causes ventricular pressure to rise precipitously with only small increases in volume, defined as restrictive ventricular physiology in the presence of normal or reduced diastolic volumes (of one or both ventricles), normal or reduced systolic volumes, and normal ventricular wall thickness.
Pulmonary valve insufficiency
MedGen UID:
11031
Concept ID:
C0034088
Pathologic Function
The retrograde (backwards) flow of blood through the pulmonary valve into the right ventricle during diastole.
Tricuspid regurgitation
MedGen UID:
11911
Concept ID:
C0040961
Disease or Syndrome
Failure of the tricuspid valve to close sufficiently upon contraction of the right ventricle, causing blood to regurgitate (flow backward) into the right atrium.
Pulmonic stenosis
MedGen UID:
408291
Concept ID:
C1956257
Disease or Syndrome
A narrowing of the right ventricular outflow tract that can occur at the pulmonary valve (valvular stenosis), below the pulmonary valve (infundibular stenosis), or above the pulmonary valve (supravalvar stenosis).
Ascites
MedGen UID:
416
Concept ID:
C0003962
Disease or Syndrome
Accumulation of fluid in the peritoneal cavity.
Hepatomegaly
MedGen UID:
42428
Concept ID:
C0019209
Finding
Abnormally increased size of the liver.
Portal vein hypoplasia
MedGen UID:
721713
Concept ID:
C1299889
Congenital Abnormality
A developmental defect characterized by underdevelopment of the portal vein.
Hepatic artery hyperplasia
MedGen UID:
1845313
Concept ID:
C5872936
Anatomical Abnormality
Abnormal increase in size of the hepatic arteries.
Hydrops fetalis
MedGen UID:
6947
Concept ID:
C0020305
Disease or Syndrome
The abnormal accumulation of fluid in two or more fetal compartments, including ascites, pleural effusion, pericardial effusion, and skin edema.
