The Jervell and Lange-Nielsen Syndrome
Background—Data on the Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome (J-LN), the long-QT syndrome (LQTS) variant associated with deafness and caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations on the KCNQ1 or on the KCNE1 genes encoding the IKs current, are still based largely on case reports. Methods and Results—We analyzed data from 186 J-LN patients obtained from the literature (31%) and from indi...
متن کاملThe Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome.
Deafness and electrocardiographic changes (prolongation of the Q-T interval and inversion of the T wave) with a clinical picture of syncopal attacks and sudden death, were described as a distinct syndrome by Jervell and Lange-Nielsen in 1957. The syndrome is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. In this study, all the cases reported since 1957 and their proposed prevalence are reviewed. Th...
متن کاملCornelia De Lange Syndrome and Cochlear Implantation
Introduction: Literature regarding the different degrees of hearing loss in patients with Cornelia de Lange syndrome (CDLS) reports that half of the affected patients exhibit severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss. We present the first pre-school child with CDLS who underwent cochlear implantation for congenital profound sensorineural hearing loss. Case Report: A 3-year-old boy with CD...
متن کاملInvasive electrophysiological study in the Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome.
Repeated invasive electrophysiological studies in a 7-year-old boy with the classic Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome disclosed increased ventricular refractoriness, unusual late diastolic endocardial waveforms, and the inability to induce ventricular fibrillation. Despite apparently beneficial electrophysiological responses to left stellate block, surgical left cervical sympathectomy was foll...
متن کاملJervell-Lange Nielsen syndrome in a Pakistani family.
Congenital long QT syndrome is a rare hereditary disease that is related to the dysfunction of ion channels in cardiac cells. We report on a very rare case of its autosomal recessive form--the Jervell-Lange Nielsen syndrome--in a Pakistani family, which was diagnosed after the incidental finding of bradycardia in a newborn baby girl. We discuss the range of presentations in neonates; the import...
