Regional distribution of predisposition to maligant hyperthermia in Germany: tate in 1997

Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a rare autosomally dominantly hereditary and potentially life-threatening disease. The prevalence of the genetic MH predisposition is estimated as 1:10,000 to 1:20,000. In Germany no data on the regional distribution are available. Therefore, the purpose of this invest...

description Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a rare autosomally dominantly hereditary and potentially life-threatening disease. The prevalence of the genetic MH predisposition is estimated as 1:10,000 to 1:20,000. In Germany no data on the regional distribution are available. Therefore, the purpose of this investigation is to summarise and present the epidemiological data of all German MH laboratories. Nine German hospitals offer the specific in vitro contracture test to diagnose the MH predisposition. All German MH laboratories carry out the examination in accordance with the standardised protocol of the European Malignant Hyperthermia Group. The laboratories were asked to provide the number of all patients investigated, excluding those suffering from other neuromuscular diseases, separated according to diagnostic groups and their places of residence, the number of the identified MH-families as well as the number of the clinically suspected and investigated MH cases with their places of residence. Eight MH laboratories provided the requested data. Until September 1997 a total of 2620 patients were investigated. In 865 patients (34%) MH suspicion was confirmed (diagnosis: MHS). 1494 patients (56%) were released by investigation from MH-suspicion (diagnosis: MHN). In 261 patients (10%) the MH-predisposition remained unsolved (diagnosis: MHE). 580 MH families were identified. Among 2620 patients 757 were clinically suspected MH cases. 35% of these suspected MH cases were classified as MHS, 10% as MHE and 55% as MHN. The documentation of the patients places of residence classified as MHS and MHE into a map of Germany demonstrates an exhaustive distribution with an increased regional prevalence in the areas of the MH laboratories. This concentration in the area of the MH laboratories becomes even more evident, when the places of residence of the MH suspected cases are demonstrated. In conclusion, the distribution of the MH predisposition is uniform and exhaustive in Germany. The presented regional concentration of clinically suspected MH cases among the MH laboratories is mainly interpreted as an expression of effective regional education and information. Considering the overall incidence of the MH predisposition as described above only 15-20% of the MH patients have so far been identified. The MH laboratories have already released about 10,000 patients from the suspicion of MH predisposition. A preliminary prevalence of at least 1:60,000 to 1:80,000 in Germany can be estim
