ABSTRACT Hypokalemic periodic paralysis (hKPP) is a rare neuromuscular channelopathy characterized by transient episodes of muscle weakness or paralysis associated with low serum potassium levels. It has been most commonly linked to autosomal dominant mutations in ion channel genes, specifically CACNA1S and SCN4A, which impair skeletal muscle ...
