Polymorphic ventricular tachycardia--part II: the channelopathies

Indrajit Choudhuri et al. Curr Probl Cardiol. 2013 Dec.

Abstract

In this article, we explore the clinical and cellular phenomena of primary electrical diseases of the heart, that is, conditions purely related to ion channel dysfunction and not structural heart disease or reversible acquired causes. This growing classification of conditions, once considered together as "idiopathic ventricular fibrillation," continues to evolve and segregate into diseases that are phenotypically, molecularly, and genetically unique.
