Cardiac Surgery for a Patient With Andersen-Tawil Syndrome

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2010
Andersen-Tawil syndrome is an uncommon inherited autosomal disorder characterized by a prolonged QT interval, periodic paralysis, and dysmorphic features. The deleterious effects of cardioplegia on periodic paralysis and cardiac arrhythmia are unknown, and no studies have reported the performance of cardiac surgery in patients with Andersen-Tawil ...

Andersen-Tawil syndrome

Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) is one of the periodic paralyses, a set of skeletal muscle disorders that cause transient weakness of the arms and legs lasting minutes to many hours. Distinguishing features of ATS include facial and limb dysmorphisms, cardiac arrhythmia, difficulties with executive function, and association with dominant mutations in the

Clinical and neurophysiological variability in Andersen‐Tawil syndrome

Muscle & Nerve, 2019
AbstractIntroductionAndersen‐Tawil syndrome (ATS) is characterized by a triad of periodic paralysis, ventricular arrhythmias, and dysmorphism. However, patients often lack one or more of these features.MethodsClinical and neurophysiological features were reviewed of five members in two families with heterozygous mutations in KCNJ2 (R218Q and R67W ...

Kir 2.1 channelopathies: the Andersen–Tawil syndrome

Pflügers Archiv - European Journal of Physiology, 2010
As a multisystem disorder, Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) is rather unique in the family of channelopathies. The full spectrum of the disease is characterized by ventricular arrhythmias, dysmorphic features, and periodic paralysis. Most ATS patients have a mutation in the ion channel gene, KCNJ2, which encodes the inward rectifier K+ channel Kir2.1, a ...

Andersen–Tawil Syndrome With Early Fixed Myopathy

Journal of Clinical Neuromuscular Disease, 2014
Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) is a rare autosomal dominant potassium channelopathy characterized by a triad of periodic paralysis, ventricular arrhythmias, and distinctive dysmorphic abnormalities. We present a 19-year-old man with characteristic skeletal dysmorphic features of ATS, early nonfluctuating proximal lower limb weakness from childhood, and ...

Andersen-Tawil and Timothy Syndromes

2013
This chapter summarizes two relatively new ion channelopathies, Andersen-Tawil and Timothy syndromes. Both disorders are pleiotropic in nature, with multiple clinical manifestations outside the cardiovascular system. While both Andersen-Tawil and Timothy syndromes are disorders of ventricular repolarization, their unique clinical phenotype ...

Andersen–Tawil syndrome: Clinical and molecular aspects

International Journal of Cardiology, 2013
Andersen–Tawil syndrome (ATS) is a rare hereditary multisystem disorder. Ventricular arrhythmias, periodic paralysis and dysmorphic features constitute the classic triad of ATS symptoms. The expressivity of these symptoms is, however, extremely variable, even within single ATS affected families, and not all ATS patients present with the full triad of ...

Coexistent manifestations of the Andersen-Tawil and Brugada syndromes

Journal of Electrocardiology, 2008
The Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) is a rare inherited disorder characterized by periodic paralysis, ventricular arrhythmias, skeletal developmental abnormalities, and in most cases, prolongation of the QT interval (or more correctly, the QU interval).

Andersen–Tawil syndrome. A diagnostic challenge

International Journal of Cardiology, 2016
Article history: Received 14 November 2015 Accepted 22 November 2015 Available online 26 November 2015 heart sounds by premature beats with compensatory pause. Holter monitoring reported corrected QT interval of 515 ms, and very frequent VPB (32,231/24 h), with multiple morphologies, couplets, bigeminy, and trigeminy.
