Overview
- The most common symptoms of Andersen-Tawil Syndrome include periodic paralysis, ventricular arrhythmias, syncope, muscular weakness, developmental abnormalities, sudden cardiac death and seizures.
History and Symptoms
History
Patients with Andersen-Tawil Syndrome may have a positive history of:
Common Symptoms
Common symptoms of Andersen-Tawil Syndrome include:[1][2]
- 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
