Overview
Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) is a very rare syndrome which is characterized by periodic paralysis, arrhythmias and long QT interval. Ellen Andersen was the first to describe the Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) in 1971.
Historical Perspective
- In 1971, Ellen Andersen et al was the first to report the symptoms of the syndrome which includes short stature, hypertelorism, broad nasal root, mandibular hypoplasia, scaphocephaly, and clinodactyly in an 8 year old boy.[1][2]
- In 1976, Stubbs described bidirectional ventricular tachycardia in a women.
- In 1977, Sansone et al reported the symptoms of periodic paralysis, ventricular arrhythmia in a patient.
- In 1994, Tawil gave the name Andersen syndrome for a clinical triad which consists of periodic paralysis, ventricular ectopy, and dysmorphic features.
- In 1994, Tawil made a significant contributions to the understanding that Andersen's syndrome is different from other long QT syndrome demonstrating lack of genetic linkage.[3]
- In 2002, Andelfinger et al identified missense mutation in KCNJ2 gene were first implicated in the pathogenesis of Andersen-Tawil syndrome.
