Polymorphic catecholergic ventricular tachycardia

Condition where patients present with SYNCOPE and distinct stress-induced TACHYCARDIA without a prolonged QT-interval but heart is structurally normal. Onset occurs in childhood or adolescence and. Germline mutations in the RYR2 gene have been identified. OMIM: 180902
