Primary cardiac angiosarcomas are rare malignant tumors with a very poor prognosis. We present a case of a 48-year-old man with no previous cardiac history who developed an incessant focal atrial tachycardia complicated by tachycardia-mediated cardiomyopathy as a consequence of cardiac angiosarcoma.

Atypical Presentation of Andersen-Tawil Syndrome: Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection without Periodic Paralysis or Dysmorphic Features.
Eur J Case Rep Intern Med

Internal Medicine, Holy Family Hospital, Rawalpindi, Pakistan.
Background: Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder caused by variants in the gene. It is associated with periodic paralysis, dysmorphic features and cardiac arrhythmias. The syndrome exhibits incomplete penetrance, leading to a broad spectrum of clinical manifestations, making diagnosis challenging.

Background: Ebstein's anomaly represents 40% of congenital tricuspid valve abnormalities. Studies about paediatric Ebstein's anomaly patients are limited.
Aim: To evaluate clinical characteristics, treatment (medical/arrhythmia ablation/surgical) results, and outcome of Ebstein's anomaly patients, and to determine factors affecting arrhythmia presence and mortality.
The impact of Omega-3 supplementation on arrhythmia reduction in acute coronary syndrome patients: a randomized clinical trial.

Mostafa Khomeini Cardiovascular and Research Hospital, Ilam University of Medical Sciences, Ilam, Iran.
Background And Objectives: Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs), including Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS), represent a major global health challenge. Arrhythmias such as Ventricular Tachycardia (VT), Ventricular Fibrillation (VF), Atrial Fibrillation (AF), Premature Ventricular Contractions (PVCs), and Premature Atrial Contractions (PACs) frequently complicate ACS, needing effective management strategies. Omega-3 fatty acids have shown potency in preventing sudden cardiac death by modulating arrhythmias, but their acute effects in ACS patients remain controversial.

Cardiovascular Department, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, TX, USA.
Background: Ventricular tachycardia (VT) in patients with cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) can lead to sudden cardiac death. The role of ventricular tachycardia ablation (VTA) in CS has been investigated in a few small, single-center, and larger observational studies, but the evidence still needs to be provided. This study aimed to investigate the clinical outcomes of VTA in patients with CS admitted with a diagnosis of VT.

Objective: To describe the outcome of a case of severe drug-resistant fetal tachyarrhythmia with progressive hydrops treated with fetoscopic transesophageal pacing (FTEP).
Method: A case of fetal tachyarrhythmia complicated by progressive hydrops is presented. The fetus, diagnosed at 26 weeks of gestation, had supraventricular tachycardia with a mechanism suggestive of atrial reentry.
