Parkinson’s disease with Sick Sinus Syndrome -A case report-
نویسندگان
چکیده
Autonomic symptoms are frequently seen in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). These include urinary symptoms, sweating disturbance, constipation, sexual dysfunction and blurred vision [1]. Dysregulation of parasympathetic cardiovascular control mechanisms is a frequent complication of early stage PD [2,3]. Such dysregulation can manifest itself as a range of measurable changes in cardiac function, such as heart rate variability and orthostatic hypotension. It is thought that these autonomic symptoms may be linked to PD medication as well as neurodegenerative disease-related changes in the function of the autonomic nervous system [4]. We report a case of PD with sick sinus syndrome.

متن کاملSick Sinus Syndrome as the Initial Manifestation of Cardiac Metastasis in Squamous Cell Lung Cancer: A Case Report
We describe the fi rst case report of a patient with cardiac metastasis from squamous cell cancer of the lung that manifested as a symptomatic tachy-bradyarrhythmia suggestive of a sick sinus syndrome. This condition generally follows a silent course. We hypothesize that the arrhythmias were attributed to the nodular metastatic lesions directly and extensively invading the right atrium and othe...
