LIMITATIONS:
A limited number of patients were included in our study because PPCM is a rare CM. This study was in retrospective case-control series design and represented the single-center experience. The study included patients referred to a tertiary HF center, so a number of patients’ data were missing. Two radiologists re-evaluated CMR images, but in twelve years, CMR imaging modalities’ quality has changed. All patients’ CMR morphological features were evaluated, but 20% of the functional analysis was missing.
