Background: Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is an inherited cardiomyopathy characterized by high risks of sustained ventricular tachycardia (sVT) and sudden cardiac death. Identifying patients with high risk of sVT is crucial for the management of ACM.
Methods: A total of 147 ACM patients were retrospectively enrolled in the observational study and divided into training and validation groups.

Background: Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is generally associated with life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias. Supraventricular arrhythmias are an accepted cause of SCD in Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome and complex congenital heart disease. However, the role of atrial tachyarrhythmias (ATAs) in SCD in patients with structurally normal hearts is unclear.

Background: First-time documentation of rare diseases is normally in the form of case reports. These are typically based on unexpected observations by vigilant clinicians and lead to further research on prevalence and aetiology. One of the best-known Norwegian examples is Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome.

Background: Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is suspected by clinical characteristics involving fatal arrhythmic events in childhood and adolescence. On the other hand, genetic testing is also important because the mutation site in the specific genes of CPVT is related to the risk of ventricular arrhythmias and gene penetrance.
Case Summary: We present a case of a 15-year-old male with a familial history of CPVT and a history of syncope at the age of 5.
