The Notched T Waves Associated With HERG Gene Ala561Val Mutation in Congenital LQT Syndrome
Objectives To study the phenotype of a China LQT family and investigate the relationship of phenotype and gene. Methods The clinical materials were analyzed and gene mutations were screened by sequencing. Results A distinctive biphasic T wave pattern was shown in the left precordial leads of all pat...

Zusammenfassung: | Objectives To study the phenotype of a China LQT family and investigate the relationship of phenotype and gene. Methods The clinical materials were analyzed and gene mutations were screened by sequencing. Results A distinctive biphasic T wave pattern was shown in the left precordial leads of all patients. The LQT2 related HERG gene Ala561Val mutation was found. Conclusions A prolonged QT interval accompanied biphasic T wave indicates HERG mutation. |
