Overview
There are no EKG findings associated with Wilson's disease. However, if the heart is affected by Wilson's disease, EKG should be performed to exclude any ongoing arrhythmias.
Electrocardiogram
- If the heart is affected by Wilson's disease, EKG should be performed to exclude any ongoing arrhythmias, mostly benign supraventricular tachycardias and extrasystolic beats.
- Other EKG abnormalities in Wilson's disease include left ventricular or biventricular hypertrophy, early repolarization, ST segment depression and T-wave inversion.[1]
