Overview
Hemochromatosis can lead to deposition of iron in heart and damage its myocardial tissue as well as conduction tissue. It will cause cardiomyopathy and cardiac arrhythmia.
Electrocardiogram
EKG could be done to evaluate cardiac arrhythmia in patients of Hemochromatosis.
- However cardiac arrhythmia marginally increased in asymptomatic subjects with hemochromatosis.[1]
