Repeated Aborted Sudden Cardiac Death with Long QT Syndrome in a Patient with Anomalous Origin of the Right Coronary Artery from the Left Coronary Cusp

A 15-year-old female with a prior history of aborted cardiac death and surgical correction of anomalous origin of the right coronary artery (RCA) presented with polymorphic ventricular tachycardia. Her electrocardiogram after defibrillation was suggestive of congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS). The p...

description A 15-year-old female with a prior history of aborted cardiac death and surgical correction of anomalous origin of the right coronary artery (RCA) presented with polymorphic ventricular tachycardia. Her electrocardiogram after defibrillation was suggestive of congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS). The patient was treated with a β-blocker and remained free from ventricular arrhythmia during the follow-up of more than 6 months. Here, we present the case of a young female with repeated aborted cardiac death accompanied by anomalous origin of the RCA and congenital LQTS for the first time.
