Kearns-Sayre syndrome
The Kearns-Sayre syndrome is a mitochondrial myopathy characterised by ptosis, chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia, abnormal retinal pigmentation, and cardiac conduction defects. A unique case is reported in which there was rapid development ofprogressive congestive cardiac failure that required cardiac transplantation. A review of published reports of mitochondrial myopathy shows that...
متن کامل[Kearns-Sayre syndrome].
The authors describe a rare group of symptoms, resulting in progressive external ophthalmoplegia, retinal pigment epithelial dysfunction and cardiac conduction disturbance. The illness belongs to the group of mitochondrial cytopathies. The case extends over the diagnostic possibilities, with special attention on electromyographic diagnostic, clinical symptoms, pathomechanism of the disease, and...
متن کاملMR of Kearns-Sayre Syndrome
A 6-year-old boy was first evaluated because of short stature and hypocalcemia. His mother's pregnancy and delivery had been normal. Growth failure became progressively obvious; it was quantified at -3.5 standard deviations when the patient was 6 months old. Within 2 years, his developmental milestones declined, necessitating special education. When he was 5 years old, carpopedal spasm began; t...
متن کامل[Cardiac involvement in Kearns-Sayre syndrome].
The mitochondrial cytopathies or oxidative-phosphorylation diseases are a diverse group of disorders that result from the structural, biochemical, or genetic derangement of mitochondria. Because mitochondrial dysfunction can affect the most highly energy-dependent organs, cardiac involvement is frequent in these diseases. To identify the clinical features of Kearns-Sayre syndrome, an entity ass...
متن کاملCardiac arrest in kearns-sayre syndrome.
The prognosis of progressive ophthalmoplegia in patients with large-scale mitochondrial DNA deletions is highly variable and almost unpredictable. The risk to develop cardiac involvement and sudden cardiac death is strikingly high, especially in patients with Kearns-Sayre syndrome (KSS). The most typical cardiac complications of the disease are conduction defects, which usually begin with left ...
