   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congenital_heart_block

   The congenital heart block is a rare disease that affects around 1 child in every 15,000–20,000 births. [3] However, its high mortality (which can be as high as 85% in some severe cases) makes the early diagnosis and intervention very important. [ 1 ]

   The cause of congenital third-degree heart block in many patients is unknown. Studies suggest that the prevalence of congenital third-degree heart block is between 1 in 15,000 and 1 in 22,000 live births. [citation needed] Hyperkalemia in those with previous cardiac disease [8] and Lyme disease can also result in third-degree heart block. [9]

4. Noncompaction cardiomyopathy - Wikipedia

   Due to non-compaction cardiomyopathy being a relatively new disease, its impact on human life expectancy is not very well understood. In a 2005 study [ 3 ] that documented the long-term follow-up of 34 patients with NCC, 35% had died at the age of 42 +/- 40 months, with a further 12% having to undergo a heart transplant due to heart failure.

5. Ebstein's anomaly - Wikipedia

[3] [11] In 2015, they were present in 48.9 million people globally. [8] They affect between 4 and 75 per 1,000 live births, depending upon how they are diagnosed.
