Article Synopsis
  • Cardiac neuroendocrine tumour metastases (CNTM) are uncommon, but advances in SSTR-PET/CT imaging may help detect them more frequently, prompting this systematic review and meta-analysis.
  • A total of ten studies with 163 patients showed that SSTR-PET/CT detects CNTM earlier than other imaging methods, with a pooled prevalence of 1.5% among neuroendocrine neoplasm (NEN) patients undergoing the procedure.
  • The findings suggest that SSTR-PET/CT improves early detection of CNTM but indicate a need for more thorough studies to assess its effects on patient outcomes and treatment decisions in NEN cases.

Background: Different genes have been associated with idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (IVF); however, there are no studies correlating genotype with phenotype.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to define the genetic background of probands with IVF using large gene panel analysis and to correlate genetics with long-term clinical outcomes.

Methods: All consecutive probands with a diagnosis of IVF were included in a multicenter retrospective study.

Aims: To investigate the role of genetic testing in patients with idiopathic atrioventricular conduction disease requiring pacemaker (PM) implantation before the age of 50 years.

Methods And Results: All consecutive PM implantations in Southern Switzerland between 2010 and 2019 were evaluated. Inclusion criteria were: (i) age at the time of PM implantation: < 50 years; (ii) atrioventricular block (AVB) of unknown aetiology.
