This patient is presenting with symptom s of dilated cardiomyopathy (shown In the image), most likely due
·4 to her past use of doxorubicin to treat Hodgkin lym phoma as part of the ABV D regimen (Adriamycin
•5 [doxorublcfn], Bleomycin, Vinblastine, and Dacarba zine). Cardiomyopathy Is a well-known adverse effect of
doxorubldn therapy. Dilation of all four chambers of t he heart leads to systolic dysfunction with subsequent
•6 decreased ejection fraction, narrowing pulse pressure, and jugular venous distention. In late stages it can
lead to left and ri ght heart fa ilure. Dil ated card iomyopathies are more classica ll y assoc1ated w ith an 53
