Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Early-onset atrial fibrillation (AF) has already been observed in approximately 2% of patients with genetically proven long QT syndrome (LQTS). This frequency is higher than population-based estimates of early-onset AF. However, the concomitant expression of AF in LQTS is likely underestimated. The purpose of this study was to examine the clinical presentation, genetic background, and outcomes of a...
