Overview

Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia is a genetic disorder. It is caused by mutations in the genes such as RYR2, CASQ2, CALM1 and TRDN.

Causes

Genetic Causes

• Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia is caused by mutation in the following genes:
  • RYR2 encoding Ryanodine receptor 2
  • CASQ2 encoding Calsequestrin 2
  • CALM1 encoding Calmodulin 1
  • TRDN encoding Triadin
