BackgroundTruncating variants in desmoplakin (DSPtv) are an important cause of arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM), however the genetic architecture and genotype-specific risk factors are incompletely understood. We evaluated phenotype, risk factors for ventricular arrhythmias, and underlying genetics of DSPtv cardiomyopathy. MethodsIndividuals with DSPtv and any cardiac phenotype, and their gene-positive family members were included from multiple international centers. Clinical data and family...
