Symptoms
- Seizures - due to oxygen deprivation that occurs during arrhythmia.
- Fainting - fainting or syncope is the most common symptom LQTS.
- A prodrome may occur before losing consciousness, which may consist of lightheadedness, heart palpitations, blurred vision or weakness.
- Sudden death - a fatal arrhythmia that is not quickly intervened on, may cause sudden death.
History and Symptoms
- The majority of patients with [disease name] are asymptomatic.
OR
- The hallmark of [disease name] is [finding]. A positive history of [finding 1] and [finding 2] is suggestive of [disease name]. The most common symptoms of [disease name] include [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3].
- Symptoms of [disease name] include [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3].
History
Patients with Andersen-Tawil Syndrome may have a positive history of:
- Periodic paralysis
- Cardiac symptoms
- Ventricular arrhythmias
- [History finding 3]
Common Symptoms
Common symptoms of Andersen-Tawil Syndrome include:[1]
- Periodic paralysis which are related to hypokalemia and are spontaneous in nature.
- Ventricular arrhythmias.
- Extrasystoles:Premature ventricular contraction
- Arrhythmic syncope.
- Intermittent muscular weakness
- Skeletal developmental abnormalities
Less Common Symptoms
Less common symptoms of Andersen-Tawil Syndrome include:
- SCD(sudden cardiac death) is due to sudden hemodynamic collapse.
- SCA: Spinocerebellar ataxia.
- Generalized seizures, which are often misdiagnosed as primary seizure disorder.
- Learning difficulties.
