Abstract excerpt
Progressive cardiac conduction disease (PCCD) is a relatively common condition in young and elderly populations, related to rare mutations in several genes, including SCN5A, SCN1B, LMNA and GJA5, TRPM4. Familial cases have also been reported. We describe a family with a large number of individuals necessitating pacemaker implantation, likely due to varying degrees of PCCD. The proband is a 47-year-old-patient,...
