Abstract Introduction/Aims The periodic paralyses are muscle channelopathies: hypokalemic periodic paralysis (CACNA1S and SCN4A variants), hyperkalemic periodic paralysis (SCN4A variants), and Andersen‐Tawil syndrome (KCNJ2). Both episodic weakness and disabling fixed weakness can occur.

Management and Treatment of Andersen-Tawil Syndrome (ATS) [PDF]
Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) is characterized by periodic paralysis, cardiac arrhythmias, and distinct facial and skeletal features. The majority of patients with ATS (ATS1) have point mutations in the KCNJ2 gene, which encodes the inward-rectifying potassium channel known as Kir2.1.
