Abstract:PRKAG2 cardiomyopathy is a rare genetic disorder that manifests early in life with an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern. It harbors left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), ventricular pre-excitation and progressively worsening conduction system defects. Its estimated prevalence among patients with LVH ranges from 0.23 to about 1%, but it is likely an underdiagnosed condition. We report the association of the PRKAG2 missense variant c.1006G>A p. (Val336Ile) with LVH, conduction abnormalities (short PR inter… Show more
