Abstrakt: | Cardiac pathologies are among the most frequent causes of death worldwide. Regarding cardiovascular deaths, it is estimated that 5 million cases are caused by sudden cardiac death (SCD) annually. The primary cause of SCD is ventricular arrhythmias. Genomic studies have provided pathogenic, likely pathogenic, and variants of uncertain significance that may predispose individuals to cardiac causes of sudden death. In this study, we describe the case of a 43-year-old individual who experienced an episode of aborted SCD. An implantable cardioverter defibrillator was placed to prevent further SCD episodes. The diagnosis was ventricular fibrillation. Genomic analysis revealed some variants in the MYPN (pathogenic), GCKR (likely pathogenic), TTN (variant of uncertain significance), SCN5A (variant of uncertain significance), MYO6 (variant of uncertain significance), and ELN (variant of uncertain significance) genes, which could be associated with SCD episodes. In addition, a protein-protein interaction network was obtained, with proteins related to ventricular arrhythmia and the biological processes involved. Therefore, this study identified genetic variants that may be associated with and trigger SCD in the individual. Moreover, genetic variants of uncertain significance, which have not been reported, could contribute to the genetic basis of the disease.
