We observed a high prevalence of pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants in cardiomyopathy-associated genes in patients with risk factor-free early-onset AF. Moreover, our follow-up imaging data indicate that these types of patients are at risk of developing ventricular dilation. Furthermore, we identified two TTNtvs founder variants in our Latvian study population.
