ABSTRACT
In developed countries, cardiovascular disease is now the most common cause of death. Only recently, it has been recognized that a substantial number of inherited metabolic disorders contribute significantly to cardiovascular disability and death because of either a direct relationship between the inborn error and outcome or a genetic predisposition resulting from interrelation between gene variants and environmental factors. In this review, we summarized some of the more important genetic disorders affecting different components of the cardiovascular system
