Abstract

Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) and Brugada syndrome (BrS) are inherited diseases characterized by an increased risk for arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. Possible overlap between the two was suggested soon after the description of BrS. Since then, various studies focusing on different aspects have been published pointing to similar findings in the two diseases. More recent findings on the structure of the cardiac cell-cell junctions may unite the pathophysiology of both diseases and give further evidence to the theory that they may in part be variants of the same disease spectrum. In this review, we aim to summarize the studies indicating the pathophysiological, genetic, structural, and electrophysiological overlap between ACM and BrS.

Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia that is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, particularly due to stroke and thromboembolism. Here is the latest research.

Arrhythmia

Arrhythmias are abnormalities in heart rhythms, which can be either too fast or too slow. They can result from abnormalities of the initiation of an impulse or impulse conduction or a combination of both. Here is the latest research on arrhythmias.
