Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: This study sought to investigate for an underlying genetic etiology in cases of apparent idiopathic bundle branch re-entrant ventricular tachycardia (BBRVT). BACKGROUND: BBRVT is a life-threatening arrhythmia occurring secondary to macro-re-entry within the His-Purkinje system. Although classically associated with dilated cardiomyopathy, BBRVT may also occur in the setting of isolated, unexplained...
