摘要
Objective. Long QT syndrome is a cardiovascular disease with a prolonged QT interval. Case report. We report a 22-year-old woman presenting with frequent syncopal episodes two months after childbirth. Electrocardiography showed a sinus rhythm, QT interval prolongation, and Torsade de Pointes. Her mother had experienced an episode of syncope, but her father had not. Genetic analyses revealed that a new mutation in the KCNH2 gene, the c.2108dupA mutation (p.H703Qfs*20, exon8, M_000238), was found in the patient and in her mother and sister. Conclusion. The c.2108dupA mutation (p.H703Qfs*20, exon8, M_000238) is the first reported case of a KCNH2 mutation at this site.
