French term

cardiopathie amyloide restrictive

French to English Medical Medical: Cardiology Internal Medicine
Happy Saturday everyone :)

I am a bit confused with the term "cardiopathie amyloide restrictive." I at first translated it "restrictive amyloid heart disease" but then found that heart dysfunction is called "restrictive cardiomyopathy" and that "cardiac amyloidisis" is a type of "restrictive cardiomyopathy"... Should it then simply be "cardiac amyloidisis"??

The context is a patient hospitalized for a "dyspnée stage III de la NYHA avec suspicion d'embolie pulmonaire chez une patiente connue pour une cardiopathie amyloide restrictive avec syndrome coronarien aigu dans le cadre d'un myélome."

Thanks

Joanna
