Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are rare genetically inherited defects leading to enzyme deficiency or malfunction in the glycosylation pathway. Normal glycosylation is essential to the development of normal cardiac anatomy and function. Congenital disorders of glycosylation-related cardiomyopathy are often the first manifestation detected in early life and may lead to sudden cardiac death. Approximately one-fifth of CDG types are related to cardiac diseases that include cardiomyopathy, rhythm disturbances, pericardial effusions, and structural heart disease.
