Inherited arrhythmias comprise a group of disorders with inherited susceptibility to arrhythmias and conduction disturbances due to mutations in genes mainly encoding the Na+, and K+ channels, and other arrhythmogenic mechanisms such as those linked to Ca++ transport (Table 1).1 The majority of heritable cardiomyopathies and channelopathies are associated with disease-susceptibility genes… View more

Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is usually referred to as arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy/dysplasia (ARVC/D).1A first historical description was made in 1736, whereas its first modern description dates back to 1982.2 Initially, ACM was thought to be an embryological malformation.3 Yet in recent years it became evident that the pathophysiology of an ongoing genetically… View more

Congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS) is an inherited cardiac ion channelopathy characterised by a variable degree of QT interval prolongation on ECG and an increased susceptibility to life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias (torsades de pointes and ventricular fibrillation) in the absence of morphological cardiac disease. LQTS is estimated to affect one in 2,000 individuals.1 It is usually… View more

Sudden unexplained death syndrome (SUDS)1 is rare in the young but when it occurs it is devastating for family and friends, and affects whole communities. That it can affect fit, athletic individuals and may be related to competitive sports only adds to the sense of incomprehension and injustice felt by wider society. In comparison with the older population, where sudden death is more common and… View more

General understanding of early repolarisation (ER) has dramatically changed in the last decade. For several years, ER has been considered a benign electrocardiographic (ECG) finding with high prevalence in the general population. Recently different studies have challenged this view and showed a significant association with life-threatening arrhythmias.1–5 In 2008 Haïssaguerre et al. first… View more
