Genetics of Heart & Vascular Disease

Genetics of Heart Disease

Genetics can direct the risk for heart disease. Genes control every detail of the cardiovascular system, from the strength of the blood vessels to the cells in the heart. Genetic mutations in a single gene influence the likelihood of developing heart disease.

There are three Common Inherited Heart Diseases

  • Familial Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
  • Familial Dilated Cardiomyopathy
  • Familial Hypercholesterolemia

Vascular Disease

Vascular disease affects the blood vessels. As heart beats, it pumps blood with oxygen and nutrients to feed tissues and it carry off waste.

Types of Vascular Disease

  • Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
  • Atherosclerosis
  • Carotid Artery Disease/Carotid Artery Stenosis
  • Chronic Venous Insufficiency
  • Intermittent Claudication
  • Deep Vein Thrombosis
