OBJECTIVES: We sought to establish the role of genetic screening for ryanodine receptor type 2 (RyR2) gene mutations in families with effort-induced polymorphic ventricular arrhythmia (PVA), syncope and juvenile sudden death. BACKGROUND: The RyR2 mutations have been associated with PVA, syncope a...
