Cardiac Sarcoidosis and a Likely Pathogenic TTN Variant in a Patient Presenting With Ventricular Tachycardia

Rare variants in TTN are the most common monogenic cause of early-onset atrial fibrillation and dilated cardiomyopathy. Whereas cardiac sarcoidosis is very underdiagnosed, a common presentation can be ventricular arrhythmias. This report presents a patient with a likely pathogenic TTN variant and ca...

Summary:Rare variants in TTN are the most common monogenic cause of early-onset atrial fibrillation and dilated cardiomyopathy. Whereas cardiac sarcoidosis is very underdiagnosed, a common presentation can be ventricular arrhythmias. This report presents a patient with a likely pathogenic TTN variant and cardiac sarcoidosis.
