Abstract

PRKAG2 syndrome (PS) is a rare autosomal dominant syndrome that mainly presents with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, ventricular preexcitation, and conduction abnormalities. Few reports have demonstrated the morphologic manifestation of patients with PRKAG2 gene defect. This case report demonstrates the cardiac magnetic resonance characteristics of the PS patients from a Chinese family.
