Dystrophinopathic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is an almost constant manifestation in Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) patients signicantly contributing to morbidity and mortality. The nearly complete replacement of the myocardium by fibrous and fatty connective tissue results in an irreversible cardiac failure, characterized by progressive reduction of the ejection fraction. According to PARADIGM-HF trial results, the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines recommend the use of sacubitril/valsartan in ambulatory patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction, who remain symptomatic despite an optimal medical therapy. To date, little is still known about the use of sacubitril/valsartan in DCM. We report the case of a patient with dystrophinopathic end stage dilated cardiomyopathy with reduced ejection fraction who successfully responded to sacubitril/valsartan treatment.
