Abstract
Cardiac complications in childhood cancer survivors are increasingly recognized, with radiotherapy and anthracycline exposure being major culprits. The incidence of recurrent cardiomyopathy in this population is significant, while the incidence of new-onset cardiomyopathy remains rare. This case series presents two cases of pregnancy-associated cardiomyopathy with a history of anthracycline use.
