Congenital Long QT Syndrome: a Systematic Review [PDF]

Acta Clinica Croatica, 2021
Congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a disorder of myocardial repolarization defined by a prolonged QT interval on electrocardiogram (ECG) that can cause ventricular arrhythmias and lead to sudden cardiac death.

QT Adaptation and Intrinsic QT Variability in Congenital Long QT Syndrome [PDF]

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2015
Background Increased variability of QT interval (QTV) has been linked to arrhythmias in animal experiments and multiple clinical situations. Congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS), a pure repolarization disease, may provide important information on the ...

“Better Late Than Never”—Late‐Onset Genotype‐Negative Congenital Long QT Syndrome: Case Report and Review [PDF]

Clinical Case Reports
Congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a genetic disorder causing prolonged QT intervals and an increased risk of arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. With 25% of cases lacking known genetic mutations, diagnosis and treatment can be challenging.

Congenital long QT syndrome: A challenging diagnosis by fetal echocardiography [PDF]

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2022
The diagnosis of long QT syndrome (LQTS) in utero presents many challenges for clinicians, and there is high risk for intrauterine fetal demise as life-threatening arrhythmias develop secondary to QT prolongation.

The congenital long QT syndrome Type 3: An update

Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2018
Congenital long QT syndrome type 3 (LQT3) is the third in frequency compared to the 15 forms known currently of congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS). Cardiac events are less frequent in LQT3 when compared with LQT1 and LQT2, but more likely to be lethal ...
