Conflict of interest statement

Dr Webster performed 1-time consulting with Solid Biosciences in 2025, which develops therapies for catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia. None of the therapies are discussed in this article. No other authors have conflicts of interest to disclose.

Figure 1
Pedigree of family with CPVT (CASQ2 variant). The proband is marked with an arrow. The age of each member was recorded based on age at sample collection or death. CPVT = catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia; SCD = sudden cardiac death.
Figure 2
Figure 2
ECG of proband. A: Baseline ECG strip showing normal sinus rhythm. B: ECG strip during an exercise test, showing polymorphic ventricular ectopy. ECG = electrocardiogram.
