The role of genetics in primary ventricular fibrillation, inherited channelopathies and cardiomyopathies.

Abstract excerpt

Sudden cardiac death (SCD) has a strong familial component; however, our understanding of its genetic basis varies significantly according to the underlying causes. When coronary artery disease is involved, the predisposing genetic background is complex and despite some interesting findings it remains largely unknown. Quite different is the case of monogenic structural and non-structural heart diseases, in which...
