Cardiac conduction disorders can manifest in young adults in isolated forms, associated with myocardial diseases or as part of a multiorgan disorder. Underlying causes of cardiac conduction disorders may be genetically determined or acquired.

Arrhythmogenic mechanisms in inherited and acquired cardiac diseases
Dysregulation of cardiac electrical activity can lead to disturbances of normal cardiac rhythm. Such arrhythmias can occur in the setting of inherited, as well as acquired disease. Independent of the underlying disease, often, genetic and acquired risk factors both contribute to arrhythmogenesis and as such are both important for determining an ...

Ion channels: structural basis for function and disease. [PDF]
Ion channels are ubiquitous proteins that mediate nervous and muscular function, rapid transmembrane signaling events, and ionic and fluid balance. The cloning of genes encoding ion channels has led to major strides in understanding the mechanistic basis

Permanent cardiac pacing following surgery for acquired valvular disease.
Between January 1980 and January 1998, implantation of a permanent pacemaker (PP) was performed in 22 patients (6.7%) following 327 acquired valvular surgeries. The indications for implantation of a PP were bradycardia with atrial fibrillation in 12 cases, sick sinus syndrome in 7 cases and complete atrioventricular block in 3 cases.
