Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) is a rare condition consisting of ventricular arrhythmias, periodic paralysis, and dysmorphic features. In 2001, mutations in KCNJ2, which encodes the α subunit of the potassium channel Kir2.1, were identified in patients ...

Atypical presentation of Andersen-Tawil syndrome: heart failure with reduced ejection without periodic paralysis or dysmorphic features [PDF]
Background: Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder caused by variants in the KCNJ2 gene. It is associated with periodic paralysis, dysmorphic features and cardiac arrhythmias.

Delayed diagnosed atypical case of Andersen-Tawil syndrome [PDF]
Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) is characterized by a triad of periodic paralysis, cardiac arrhythmias and distinctive dysmorphic features. Due to its rarity and high degree of clinical and phenotypic variability, a diagnosis of ATS can be very perplexing ...

Flecainide ameliorates arrhythmogenicity through NCX flux in Andersen-Tawil syndrome-iPS cell-derived cardiomyocytes [PDF]
Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) is a rare inherited channelopathy. The cardiac phenotype in ATS is typified by a prominent U wave and ventricular arrhythmia. An effective treatment for this disease remains to be established.
