N2 - Several cardiac diseases are autosomal dominantly inherited. This includes cardiomyopathies, primary arrhythmias (channelopathies), dyslipidaemias, premature ischaemic heart diseases and diseases of the thoracic aorta. Sudden cardiac death in the young is also often due to one of the inherited cardiac diseases. Clinical and genetic cascade family screening of the relatives to patients with inherited cardiac diseases is now organized in a national network of centres of cardiology, sharing pedigrees, clinical and genetic information. This gives unique opportunities for offering focused prophylaxis in the group of high-risk relatives.
