High Grade Atrioventricular Block in Von Recklinghausen Disease: A Rare Phenomenon

coronary slow flow phenomenon and atrioventricular block: a case report

the coronary slow flow phenomenon (csfp) is characterized by a delayed coronary blood flow in the absence of an obstructive coronary artery disease. although the relation between the csfp and myocardial ischemia has been reported previously, there is no knowledge about the relationship between the csfp and the conduction system disorder. in this case report, we describe a patient with the csfp ...

Tuberculous Serositis Coexisting with Reversible High-Grade Atrioventricular Block

We report two young male patients with documented tuberculous serositis that were complicated with high-degree atrioventricular block (AV block) during the course of the disease. In contrast to the previously reported irreversible nature of tuberculosis-related AV block, these conduction abnormalities in our cases resolved spontaneously under antituberculosis treatment. Such reversible tubercul...

Von recklinghausen disease: one patient – various problems

von Recklinghausen disease (vRD), more widely known as neurofibromatosis type 1, belongs to a group of genetic disorders and it is considered to be the most common genodermatosis. The disease has an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance that involves mutations within the NF1 gene located on chromosome 17 in locus q11.2. The product of the NF1 gene is neurofibromin and the protein is well kn...

Linkage analysis of neurofibromatosis (von Recklinghausen disease).

Linkage analysis of 28 genetic markers was undertaken in 108 subjects from 11 families with well-documented, classic, peripheral neurofibromatosis. Fifty-four persons were affected in one four-generation family, seven three-generation families, and three two-generation families. Lod scores were calculated using the standard LIPED programme for 49 combinations of theta male and theta female from...
