An 82-year-old woman with a previous history of inferior myocardial infarction was admitted to our hospital with the complaint of syncope. She had received hemodialysis for chronic renal failure and an oral administration of pilsicainide (50 mg daily) for prevention of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.

متن کاملCatecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia.
Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia is a rare cause of exercise-induced arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death in the pediatric patient. This arrhythmia is difficult to diagnose in the emergency department, given the range of presentations; thus, a familiarity with and high index of suspicion for this pathology are crucial. Furthermore, recognition of the characteristic electroca...
متن کاملCatecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia.
Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is an inherited cardiac arrhythmia disorder that is characterized by emotion- and exercise-induced polymorphic ventricular arrhythmias and may lead to sudden cardiac death (SCD). CPVT plays an important role in SCD in the young and therefore recognition and adequate treatment of the disease are of vital importance. In the past years t...
متن کاملCatecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia
Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is a rare genetic disease with an incidence of approximately 1:10,000 in European population and a very high mortality rate if left untreated, reaching 31% by the age of 30 years [1]. It is characterized by bidirectional or polymorphic ventricular tachycardias (VT) induced by an adrenergic triggering factor, such as emotional stress o...
