Abstract :
Addison’s disease is often accompanied by a number of cardiovascular manifestations. We report the case of a 30-year-old man who
presented with a new onset dilated cardiomyopathy due to Addison’s disease. The clinical presentation, treatment, and outcomes
of this rare hormone mediated cardiac disorder are reviewed.
