Popis: Multifocal ectopic Purkinje-related premature contraction (MEPPC) is an autosomal dominant SCN5A channelopathy characterized by frequent multiform premature ventricular contractions originating from the His-Purkinje system. We present a patient with an MEPPC phenotype whose genetic testing identified a pathogenic SCN5A (HGNC:10593) variant amenable to precision antiarrhythmic therapy with flecainide.
