Case Reports in Cardiogenetics and Cardiovascular Genetics is a specialized section of the journal dedicated to publishing peer-reviewed clinical case reports that explore the genetic basis of cardiovascular diseases. This section focuses on real-world clinical experiences that highlight inherited cardiac disorders, genotype–phenotype correlations, diagnostic challenges, and personalized management strategies based on genetic findings.
The section aims to advance understanding of cardiovascular genetics by sharing rare, novel, and educational cases that inform clinical decision-making, family screening, and precision medicine in cardiology.
Scope of the Section
This section welcomes case reports covering, but not limited to, the following areas:
-
Inherited cardiomyopathies (hypertrophic, dilated, restrictive, arrhythmogenic)
-
Channelopathies and inherited arrhythmia syndromes
-
Congenital heart disease with genetic associations
-
Cardiogenetic syndromes and multisystem disorders
-
Sudden cardiac death and familial risk assessment
-
Genotype–phenotype correlations in cardiovascular disease
-
Genetic testing, counseling, and cascade screening
-
Variant interpretation and clinical significance
-
Precision and personalized cardiovascular medicine
-
Novel or rare genetic variants affecting cardiac structure or function
