Simultaneous Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia and Long QT Syndrome Gene Mutations

Genetic channelopathies can predispose individuals to life-threatening arrhythmias. Two such channelopathies are long QT syndrome (LQTS) and catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). To the best of our knowledge, we present the first case of LQTS with novel combined genetic mutat...

description Genetic channelopathies can predispose individuals to life-threatening arrhythmias. Two such channelopathies are long QT syndrome (LQTS) and catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). To the best of our knowledge, we present the first case of LQTS with novel combined genetic mutations of KCNH2 and cardiac ryanodine receptor (RYR2) genes.
