Sports participation in long QT syndrome.

Abstract:

:Untreated congenital long QT syndrome may result in potentially lethal ventricular tachycardia. In the most common type, risk of such an event has been linked to exercise. This originally resulted in very restrictive guidelines for sports participation in affected individuals. Although the complex interactions of a specific genotype, modifying cofactors, and risk are only now being explored, scientific evidence based on clinical experience now suggests that in many instances such restrictive guidelines are unwarranted. In particular, patients with this condition who are compliant with β-blocker therapy and who have never had symptoms during exertion are now enjoying the benefits of athletic activity.

  • Surgical repair in neonatal life of cardiac haemangiomas diagnosed prenatally.

    abstract::Although cardiac tumours are rare, such tumours are increasingly being diagnosed with increasing frequency and great accuracy by antenatal ultrasound. Cardiac haemangiomas account for less than one-twentieth of all primary cardiac tumours, with most being diagnosed in the neonatal period. We report 3 instances of succ...
