A Case of NAA10-related Syndrome With Prolonged QTc Treated With a Subcutaneous Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator After Ventricular Fibrillation

NAA10 is an enzyme involved in the N-terminal acetylation of proteins. NAA10-related syndrome is caused by a pathogenic variant of NAA10 on X chromosome, resulting in several phenotypes, including mental retardation, hypotonia, growth retardation, and various external malformations, with varying degrees of severity. With regard to cardiac diseases, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a possible complication. Some mutations are also associated with long QT syndrome. Herein, we describe the case of a 7-year-old boy with a novel NAA10 mutation who experienced cardiopulmonary arrest possibly due to long QT syndrome and was implanted with a subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator.
