Apical Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy in a Case with Chest Pain and Family History of Sudden Cardiac Death: A Case Report
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common genetic cardiovascular disease, which is caused by a multitude of mutations in genes encoding proteins of the cardiac sarcomere (1). Apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (AHCM) is an uncommon type of HCM. The sudden cardiac death is less likely to occur in the patients inflicted with AHCM (2). Herein, we presented the case of a 29-year-old man ...
متن کاملHistomorphological Spectrum of Various Cardiac Changes in Sudden Death: An Autopsy Study
Background and Objectives: In spite of large number of studies conducted so far, sudden cardiac death remains an enigma and relative importance of acute coronary events as a trigger of sudden death is currently unclear. An autopsy study of heart was therefore planned to observe various histomorphological cardiac changes, and to determine the frequency association of acute coronary events and my...
متن کاملGenetic determinants of QT interval variation and sudden cardiac death.
Electrocardiographic QT interval prolongation or shortening is a risk factor for sudden cardiac death. The study of Mendelian syndromes in families with extreme long and short QT interval duration and ventricular arrhythmias has led to the identification of genes encoding ion channel proteins important in myocardial repolarization. Rare mutations in such ion channel genes do not individually co...
متن کاملمرگ ناگهانی قلبی در ورزشکاران و راهبردهای پیشگیری از آن: مقاله مروری
Sudden cardiac death in sport, although rare, but is a tragic event, attracting the media and public attention. Sport and exercise may act as a trigger for sudden cardiac death. Risk of sudden death in young athletes with cardiovascular disease is 2.5 times more frequent than non-athlete individuals. More than 90% of cases of sudden death occur during or immediately after training or competitio...
متن کاملContemporary Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine Clinical and Genetic Determinants of Torsade de Pointes Risk
Torsade de pointes (TdP) is a stereotyped polymorphic ventricular tachycardia characterized by a cyclic shifting of the QRS axis (twisting around the points of the isoelectric line) preceded by a prolonged QT interval (Figure 1). It is the quintessential arrhythmia of the long-QT syndrome (LQTS), whether congenital or acquired, and results from a complex interplay among structural, metabolic, g...
