Andersen Tawil syndrome – a case study
The first case of a patient with periodic paralysis of muscles accompanied by ventricular arrhythmias was described in 1963 by Klein and colleagues[1]. In 1971, the team led by E.D.

Short QT Syndrome or Andersen Syndrome [PDF]
See related article, pages 800–807 In 1994, the complete human cDNA of an inwardly rectifying K+ channel gene, KCNJ2 or Kir2.1, was isolated. Kir2.1 channels are important regulators of resting membrane potential of the cardiac (and also skeletal) muscle and cellular excitability,1 since they cause an outflow of K+ in the hyperpolarized membrane ...

Andersen-Tawil syndrome — Periodic paralysis with dysmorphism
Andersen Tawil syndrome is a rare type of channelopathy characterized by the presence of periodic paralysis, cardiac arrhythmia (prolonged QT interval or ventricular arrhythmia) and distinct dysmorphic abnormalities. It is a type of potassium channelopathy that occurs sporadically or by autosomal dominant inheritance.
